We have a Server 2003 server and a combination of pc's and notebooks on our
network. We would like to create a simple automated method of distributing
software to the workstations from the server without having to purchase
expensive software to do this.
Is there someway to "script" this process when a user logs onto the network?


Thanks in advance.

You can do a lot with Group Policy (application
install/assignment/publishing) if you use Active Directory - but you need
MSI files to do this with. Try posting in
microsoft.public.windows.group_policy for more help.
 
Hi

I neglected to mention that not all the computers are on AD.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.
