[wpkg-users] [Bug 141] Unable to install client through software group policy

[Pendl Stefan]

Hello,
 I searched the net and it seems there are only two options:



1) create a .MST file



2) use ORCA to change the default settings inside the .MSI file



I don't like both, so I do the installation of the WPKG client manually, since I do not like to activate the guest account accross the domain to make the statup scripts work.

I think we could do it.

Although it's really hard for me to believe that Active Directory really does
not allow setting parameters to MSI packages it deploys via GPO.

What a system for deploying MSI packages it is if it can't really deploy MSI
packages?

Every second MSI installer has such parameters - activation key, inf file with
settings, other options.


Did anyone try asking at a Windows-specific mailing list if such parameters are
somehow settable via GPO?
