install software over the network

[KB]

Hi,

I hope this isn't too vague, but I am green with network related stuff
and have been curiously lately. How does one install software to many
computers across a network (software that has licenses that cover the
amt of computers)?

It depends on the software and how it installs on one computer.

If you are using Active Directory then you can use group policy.
