User APPS. Installing on big sites.

Got to upgarde one of our biggest clients soon and we need to do all the phone managers to. Is there a quicker way to roll out 100+ phone managers rather than go to every machine?!

If you are upgrading to 3.2 you can deploy the apps by Group Policy Object. However, you will still need to visit each pc to un-install the old version (after installing 3.2, this will be unecessary as 3.2 will upgrade through GPO)

Take Care

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.

In this case just dump an extracted user folder in a server share and point GPO to run from here

I have created a procedure for doing this "Phone Manager Deployment via Windows Group Policy Sever 2003 and XP SPII Clients"

Looks like the file is saved locally on a machine from where the Hyperlink is pointing. That file would be dead handy if you see this.

Should now be resolved, can you please try again

We do not uninstall or install implementation or upgrade apps, except for one or two of each type with their IT people watching to be trained. The remainder are their responsibility. If they wish us to do any more than this, standard T & M rate applies, and will need to be scheduled.
We would then probably sub it out to a local guy who can follow a simple written procedure, and has basic help desk skills, then follow with a tech to oversee the work.

I will check out the web site MrIPO, and thanks for sharing, we may use this.
