Note, you can have an "Admin Install UI" that shows up when the admin creates the network image and you can specify "Admin Properties" that are persisted during that process. That can be used, for example, to have the Admin accept the EULA and have the act of accepting the EULA stored in the network image.
There is a lot to Group Policy deployment that is *way* beyond the scope of the WiX toolset. I suggest finding some good documentation/whitepapers on the Group Policy deployment topic and reading for a while. I remember there being a lot to Group Policy deployment back when I worked on Office. -----Original Message----- From: zett42 [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 10, 2008 05:23 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Network Install: How To Control What User Sees?

By default, it uses the values of properties specified in the property table and it installs features depending on the "level" of the feature. You can simulate this by running "msiexec /qn Package.msi". Note however, that during group policy installation, the package has no access to any user-profile data. If you want a customized group policy installation, you need to assign a transform file (.mst) to the group policy object. The MST-file is then applied "on-the-fly" during installation of the package to change/add/remove some properties. For instance, the transform could supply the ADDLOCAL property to specify which features to install. Look in MSDN how transforms are created. -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Network-Install%3A-How-To-Control-What-User-Sees--tp1633615p1638742.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SF.Net email is Sponsored by MIX09, March 18-20, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
