Sorry I was running out the door as I posted that... I'm going to be using Active Directory to push out MSI files, but sadly most of our Win2k machines have old service packs on them. I need to make sure the Windows Installer Package is installed on all machines and because it is an .exe file it won't happen from Active Directory.

I'm thinking of pushing out the msinstw.exe file using a startup script and once the 2.0 installer is out, I'll use Active directory to push out the modern way for software installs.

Right now we use a .bat logon script that calls the kix script. Do you basically do the same thing for startup scripts? Do you think this will work to roll out the installer? I assume it must have a silent mode install to avoid input problems...
