We use MS SMS here to push the install out, the script we use is below:
We use WinZip installer to create an executable that starts the whole thing.
Works for any MS OS, and adds updates to the start menu.
User cannot change the properties, as the "Allowproperties" Registry key is used.
I know it looks big, but once you read it the logic is simple, I hope :-)

We have developed an automatic method for deploying VNC over a network that
is totally invisible at the user's/machine's end, and takes a mere 17
seconds per machine.
If you're using a Windows NT network/domain, I'll be happy to share our
secrets. As far as I know, it will only work on an NT (or possibly win2000)
domain.

I am working on automation tools for deploying and managing VNC in our
company and would like to formally request that VNC be given an option
to do
things quietly in the next version. Maybe a /quiet option to surpress
any
informational dialog boxes, ect. Any chance?
Thanks,
Steve Bostedor
