[THIN] Re: PS4 + Altiris pointers pls

I agree...Should only take a day or two to script it and then you have much
better flexibility.  Just did ours over a few days.  Biggest headache was
getter Altiris up to a version that doesn't cause aclient issues with 2003
and sp1

Citrix really should be a post image install...  If you have Altiris,  why
bother with images when you can scripts the installs?

We're going to be starting a new project that will involve creating and
deploying PS4 images (XPa) on servers (probably DL385's) via Altiris. Anyone
have any recommendations/experiences/gotchas/best practices etc etc that
they'd care to share with this kind of work? We're not talking about a
massive amount of servers (less than 15 at first) but keen to get it all
working slickly for the future. 

We're thinking of a modular approach with the images (i.e. 1 image with only
OS, one with OS&#43Citrix, one with OS&#43Citrix&#43apps) for flexibility


Cheers!
