Hello guys,

I have a little question for you. Were still running NT4 Server. Were having problems roling software out via SMS, and I have to install Adobe9 on all of our PC's beofre next Wednesday. Some of our PC's are 100's of miles away. I've used a batch file to deliver the souvce file to every PC, but now need to get it to install. The commands need to be in the logonscript.bat.

So fasr I have come up with the following in the logonscript:

REM Runs the local installer for Adobe 9

if not "D:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" start "c:\reader9\acroread.msi /quiet /norestart"

It keeps coming back at me with syntex of command is incorrect.

I what the command to check to ensure that Adobe 9 has not already been installed. If it has it can error out. If it's not installed then the source files are on the c: with the switches needed for installation.

I just love these little tasks that we get on a Friday morning.

Anyways, any little will be a great help.

Cheers all and have a good weekend if you can.

Marty
