We use Hwb at our school and find it pretty good. Like the idea of domain masking. I agree that you will in effect lose your domain as hwb would need the domain’s mx records to point to their mail servers. Is it possible after changeover to setup custom email addresses like [email protected] or [email protected] or are we stuck with the Current hwb email addresses?

Got to the bottom of the manual install problem - Dot Net Version 4 was not installed. Abandoned the manual install as we have sussed out how to install the agent and the updates via the deployment console

Not the Cardiff area but not a million miles away

Strictly speaking yes, but in the meantime we have worked out how to do it ourselves

Our LEA manage the server and it takes quite a long response time. Installing the agent would save some time for all concerned, I think.

The domain profile is OFF in the firewall. I'm now getting this error (tried it on several pc's all with windows xp sp3:

I don't want to disable the firewall completely. Been looking at adding an exception rule but can't work out whether its an INBOUND or OUTBOUND RULE. I would think its INBOUND - tried adding the specific TCP port 52965 to no avail - still blocking. Any ideas?

thanks for the replies so far. I ran the install again and found as above that the "/" was being appended to the key path. I am now getting this error message - i am logged on as domain admin (which would be part of local admins group) Any further ideas please?

I have extracted the necessary files via the deployment console and copied them to a flash drive. When running the Solus3AgentInstaller.bat file all appears to install properly and even copies files to folder on client pc. However, right at the last minute, the program bombs out with an error message: "Solus 3 Agent Setup Wizard ended prematurely" The process then stops and the install is rolled back and the files and folders created by the install are automatically deleted. The problem seems to be at the point where the solus3 service is installed I am logged on as a domain admin on an XP Sp3 client PC, install files are on a flash drive. I'm wondering whether it may be a permissions issue / windows server 2008 R2 firewall issue? Any ideas please.

Seems to be working fine on Windows XP SP3 Computers, many thanks. Two further queries: 1) Have you trialled this with Windows 7 Professional? Seems to install but get no install popups to show progress. 2) With regards Office 2010 Service pack 1, I've tried to slipstream the updates by folllowing various instructions and extracting the updates and copying them to the updates folder on the x86 share. If I run the setup.exe in the location: \\apps\Deploy\Office2010SourceFiles\x86 the updates get installed and I end up with a SP1 version of Office 2010. all scripted versions just install the vanilla version of Office 2010. Its probably a simple solution, any ideas please.

Thanks both for the prompt replies. I have amended the line that points to the deploy share - slight mistake on my part there. The script was stuck in a loop saying that office was installed but it wasn't. Deleted the registry key: "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ComputerNam e\ComputerName\Office2010", "YES", "REG_SZ" and it seems to be installing OK now Will do some more testing and report back. many thanks

I like your script but unable to get it working properly. Do you have a description of how it works, particularly the registry section and pc hostname section of the script. I can get the script to run but it does not install office from our deploy share.
