jgcracknell Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Hi Google Chrome 15 for Business now allows you to install behind a firewall by switching off Google Update at install. However you have to use the line msiexec /i GoogleChromeStandaloneEnterprise.msi NOGOOGLEUPDATEPING=1 How do I get GoogleChrome to roll out over a network using Active Directory as usually when I try to alter something I do a network /a install and alter the files contained within. thanks in advance James
plexer Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Produce a transform using orca to alter that setting and then deploy the msi with the transform. Ben
jgcracknell Posted October 31, 2011 Author Posted October 31, 2011 Hi Ben The setting is not present when I look at the tables in ORCA. J.
localzuk Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 You may need to add it in properties. However, why not use the group policy objects instead? Google Chrome for Business - Google Apps Help
jgcracknell Posted October 31, 2011 Author Posted October 31, 2011 Thanks - fingers crossed - 1st test worked OK. Anything to get rid of Firefox. I am using GPO to control Chrome - but it's the firewall that is the issue with GoogleUpdate as it did not allow for proxies. Good eh? It isn't the fastest install going - but if it enables me to get rid of that memory intensive Firefox I'll be happy!
DrCheese Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 You may need to add it in properties. However, why not use the group policy objects instead? Google Chrome for Business - Google Apps Help It's a long standing bug with the Google Chrome MSI installer. Namely that if you deployed it via GPO, it would take up to 20 minutes to install. This is because if Google Updater tries to access the web to pull down the latest version, even if it doesn't need to. It would also ignore the GPO setting.
