You can use the msiexec switch method to push out 40+ servers easy...
As far as the Username/Password info, I'm not quite sure what the issue with
that is. The installation script that you're using is only needed 1 time
for the installation of MetaFrame. There is no need to copy or store this
file on the MF server itself. As far as the initial file being stored on a
network share, either restrict access to the file, or remove the
username/password combination from the text file when the text file is not
being used. Using a transform file will not protect the
username/password... It would take an extra 30 seconds for me to start Orca
and load the transform file.

I'm looking at a +40 server push that I need to automate. I really
dont' want to manually do this nor do I want the user and pwd infor in
a clear text format.
