Default MS select copy of Office 2000 on W2k termsrvr...


i am trying to install Office 2000 on a 2000 terminal
server using the companies select CD's. I have tried to
run the setupppro.exe and setupstd.exe in conjunction with
with "termsrvr.mst" file using the Transforms switch. It
gave an error each time both from CD and network install
directory. Doe anyone know if this works? Do I need a
standard copy of office using only setup.exe? Any help
would be appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks Patrick.. However, there is no "Setup.exe" this is
from the client select CD's which has "setuppro.exe"
and "setupstd.exe". I have installed this before using
the "termsrve.mst" file, but never using a MS Select CD.
When I try to run the installs, I get a grey text screen
only. I think I need to get another copy of Office 2K!
Any other thoughts?

Not quite sure this'll help, but you might want to try a
different/updated version of setup.exe:
