Creating administrative image for Wildfire 2.0
Creating administrative image for Wildfire 2.0
(OP)
Hi,
Ive been doing some research on how to create an adminitrative image install (.msi package) for Wildfire 2.0, but I cant seem to find any information on how its done. We have a multi-user environment here that would make installation of Wildfire on each computer seperately a major pain.
I have come across the option of installing the program onto the server, and creating a shortcut to the exe on the clients machine. I can see this as a easy alternative, but wouldnt this cause noticable lag (our power users would definitely notice any performace decrease)?
Any insight as to how you other admin's are getting it done would be great.
Thanks,
Mark

However, if you record a trail file of your PTCsetup session you can use it to automate installation on other machines. See the WF2 installation guide page 24.

The powerpoint and the sample script files are definitely worth the time to look at if anyone else is trying to research this. Thanks again for your help
