Deploying USBDLM remotely

[CHiLL]

Hello,

It's been a very long time since I've used USBDLM, and even then, it was deployed by a colleague in a previous workplace. We are having issues with USB drive letter conflicts and not currently using drive letter management.

 

I'm looking to push USBDLM out to our client machines using SCCM and the MSI. Deploying the MSI isn't the problem...however I'm wondering how I can centrally manage the drive letters? I have seen this help article: USBDLM Help, under the 'Network Letters' section. By the looks of that, I need to push a new settings.ini file to each workstation USBDLM will be installed on, which would point to a remote INI file that I can manage centrally.

 

Am I best just using SCCM/GPO to send and replace the existing .ini file, or is there an easier way?

its been a while but from what i remember its just a case of getting the ini file to a pc so group policy preferences or batch file is probably the simplest way

Cheers, maybe I should have just tried it before asking! Once deployed, I used GPP to run at each logon, using GPP Files with a 'Replace' action to replace the existing .ini file with the new one, located in NETLOGON. Worked straight away!

 

Thanks for the reply though.
