Here you are then. I've removed the file extension to try to weasel it
through some increasingly fascist email scanners, so please add .zip to the
filename when you save it.

Best wishes
Angus

I could send you my system if you like. It's not particularly
sophisticated but we've used it for years to handle smallish deployments
to about 2000 client machines. It's free as well.

I have heard those types of thing about SMS, and I see that RIS seems to
focus on deploying an entire OS.  All I really need to do is install a
small client (2-3MB) on about 50 desktops.  Most of my users on the WAN
come through via Terminal Services (Metaframe) so I don't have to worry
about them, I just put it on the server and I am done.  It is the
various PC's out there that I don't have time to visit.  SMS seems like
serious overkill for this.

We wrote our own in-house system years ago. All the commercial stuff
either had loads of features we didn't need (MS SMS), cost a fortune (MS
SMS) or didn't even work properly (MS SMS). Our own is starting to show
its' age but easy enough to update. I'm in the process of making it more
WAN-friendly now.

Hello all, I was wondering if any of you had suggestions for pushing out
software to clients.  We need to be able to push out some small client
software to about 50 PC that are spread out across our WAN.  Do you know
of any good products to accomplish this?
 
Thanks in advance,
 
Collin White
