Active Directory Install

[Mike Compton]

Before I begin let me say I am not new to deploying
software via AD. We have over 75 software packages
deployed in our environment with Office XP being one of
them.

I am not sure what the best solution is to deploy Office
2003. I could easily make a install point and a mst to
deploy it (that is not my question). I want to know about
updates. Do I slip stream them? Won't that mess up our
original package?

What is Microsoft's preferred way to update office that
is installed from AD with users not as Admin (running
hotfix exes is out)

 

[Guest]

Is there no one out there that can help me with this?

If you ask an actual question, with scenarios, etc., then someone can help
you.

You basically asked a question saying "What do I do about SPs" and the
answer is completely dependent on your Office environment and your preferred
method for installation.
