I know that you can use Kixtart to install a program as I have seen enough references to it on this board.

But I am not entirely sure how to go about it in terms of what I want to accomplish. I want to install a client program called Openvpn onto some computers for my clients. But I will not be there to install the software, as this will be on computers at the clients homes. They will install the software themselves and then they can connect to their workplace network using openvpn.

So what I want to do is have something which installs Openvpn and then copies some keys and config files to the appropriate directory depending on whether its windows 64 or windows 32 bit.

Ideally I would like to have all this in one executable file so I thought that I would use the kix2exe gui.

But I am not sure that I can do this as I would need two different files for the config file - one for 32 bit and one for 64 and I don't know how to tell the script where to find the files if they are included within the executable wrapper.

In addition, I presume that I need to find the silent install option to get Openvpn to install both the program and a special Tap adapter. So I would imagine the usual approach in kixtart would be to do shell setup.exe /silent command example type of kixtart command?

Would you guys use the kix2exe for this or is there a better way. Essentially there are two parts to the install process. Install the program and then copy the keys and config file to the openvpn directory.

sorry that I have not been on the Kixorg board much lately, but its been quite busy.
