Clients have to enter the CD Key when Installing Office through Group Policy

[Jerry Deutsch]

Clients have to enter the CD Key when Installing Office
through Group Policy. What I want to do is have the CD Key
embedded into the installtion files. I found how to do it
using msiexec but cannot find how to do it using Group
Policy to Publish the installation.

Can it be placed in and .ini file or somewhere with a
PDKEY="cd key" command? If so, how?

Thanks for your help
Jerry

Jerry-

You need to create an MST with the CD Key in there using the office Custom
Installation wizard. Take a look at this page for more info:
