Store Intall CD files?

[OLDMO]

I'm curious. I'm all the time having to track down cd's for various OS's when I'm trying to add new features....it's the same with office. My question is I've heard of alot of people storing these needed files on a network share. What are your thoughts on this and how is the best way to do this? Are there certain folders that need to be copied or the entire CD? Is there any problems with activation issues?

I386 Folder ....

Thank You....copying those files right now. I'm assuming I need to copy each i386 folder out of each OS. We use XP, 2000, and 2000 server here. Or do I need just the one folder.

Also does anyone know about doing this for office. I didn't think there was a way with office but I thought I'd check.

Thx,
Ryan

You are right, you need 1 for each OS.
