MSI parameters and Group Policy

J

John M

Hi,

I have created an MSI using a VS.Net setup project. It displays a dialog
where the user enters a value into a textbox before installation.

The tech guys want to be able to install the MSI using Windows 2000 Group
Policy. I don't know anything about Group Policy.

Is it possible to specify the textbox value as a parameter somehow?

If it's associated with a public proprty (uppercase), then yes. The command
line would then be something like:
msiexec /i <path to msi> YOURPROPERTY=YourText .

Can you specify a command line in AD?
If not, use a transform.
