Some of our computers do not have the Client for
Microsoft Networks installed on them. We run on a Novell-
based network, but now have an application in use that
needs this client.

We were looking for a quick way to get this installed on
our staff's computers, and hopefully have them do it
themselves. We do not have any software-deployment
servers. We've come up with a list of steps it takes to
get this installed on a Windows XP machine. I'll list
them below.

Is there any way to do this in a simpler way? Thank you
for any help at all.

STEPS
=====

Select Start
Select Control Panel
Select Network & Internet Connections
Select Network Connections
Select Local Area Connection
Right click and Select Properties
Select Install
Select Client
Select Add
Select Microsoft under Manufacturer
Select Client for Microsoft Networks under Network Client.
Select OK
 
Yeah there is:

Select Local Area Connection
Right click and Select Properties
Select Install
Select Client
Select Add
Select Microsoft under Manufacturer
Select Client for Microsoft Networks under Network Client.
Select OK

It's a little bit shorter, not much though...
