Hi all Has anyone had any luck rolling out Adobe DNG 11.3 via script or GPO? I've tried a variety of methods and had no joy yet Thanks

Probably the wrong forum area but does anyone know if there is going to be a new version of MDT (Microsoft Deployment Toolkit) any time soon? I'm kind of the unofficial guy who obtains the most up to date installers for software at work - and yes, I know I'm incredibly sad

I am using Microsoft SMS instaler v.2.0 on Windows 7. (Yes I know) For reason it dose not pick up my mapped drives when I try to add installation files. Have restarted and remapped drives with no joy. A little bit stuck at the moment. Any help most welcome guys Thanks

Got a vested interest in this topic - working for Pearson Education... There's an internal discussion which I'd like to get your input into. As publishing moves inexorably more toward online services, is it time to give up on CD-ROM and DVD-ROM as a delivery media? Of course, there's a lot of issues which count for and against discs, some people love them, some find them a waste of space and quickly rip them to ISO for storage, but I'd particularly like to get your opinions on the alternatives. Here's a topic list for issues which have been raised on which your thoughts would be appreciated: Online only products. Online download of ISO or self-contained MSI installers for offline use. Copy protection generally. Licence keys and activation (transforms are a must). To date we've largely stayed away from copy protection and product activation, as schools are excellent at self-management, but illegal filesharing is just a fact of life (you never quite know what you're getting of course). Just for the record, the support service chaps recently recorded end-users as wanting to keep operating offline - i.e. local or network product by an unsurprisingly high 66%, 27% were happy for website access to products and 7% by VLE. You guys are really at the pointy end, so I consider your views as highly important inputs to this debate.

Hi All, Would anyone be able to recommend an AV installer for the London area? We have a new build project at a school (about 15 classroom/T&L areas) and I am looking for suppliers to tender for the AV work (IWBs/Projectors/Digital Signage etc). I already have 2 recommendations but could do with one more from people in the know... Many thanks in advance.

Hello! We use Software Distribution through Group Policy but I wondered how to deploy Adobe Flash, Adobe Reader, Adobe Air and Java? Is there an msi anywhere for the latest versions?

I have just gone through our software share, tiding up old versions of acrobat reader, flash, promethean etc This got me thinking, is there a freeware program that could create a menu listing for all the software installers in alphabetical lists. Like CD Autorun menus used to be - where an item was greyed out if it was already installed. Filtering the list by location or type of computer would be useful. Does such a thing exist? I did a quick google search which found several possibilities, but I thought you guys could save me some time if you already have one up and working. Thanks,
