I've had a quick google and searched on here but couldn't find anything, also looked on serif.
Does anyone else use them on CC4, if so how did you package them?

mst's?
Serif do have MSI's that you can use. They are included on the disks from Serif. Haven't installed them on a CC4 network, but they have worked across our system perfectly.

5th November 2009, 09:45 AM #3 The .msi's are available from Serif (should be on the cds) and there's a tool to create pre-serialised admin install points on the cds as well.

5th November 2009, 10:07 AM #5 AFAIK there are no MST's for them. Which is really unfortunate as when doing a GPO install using the MSI it doesn't include the tutorials. We find this to be a major PITA

5th November 2009, 12:08 PM #6 It's really annoying, we need to install the resources to a shared location (disk space is tight). Anyone know how we can do this?

Basically you have to do a network install, it asks you the install questions and generates the MSI's for you on the network share. These can then be used to install via a GPO and do in fact work quite well.
Thats how I have allways done them, and allways install from them as its all preconfigured.

Ah yes, now I remember. The previous network installation was done by another tech not me. I seem to remember it did ask me how to configure it. Hmm...it seems my HDD (brain) is corrupting information. Lol.

Can you explain to me what tools you used to do this?

How about making your own MST with a tool like InstallTailor.

You`re right about that, but the previous version(s) is still available and useable.
