Hi Joe
I wish to silently install the client via the Web Interface. I tried to add
/qb switch in the install.cs file (ie the config file that starts the MSI
install) but it doesn't work. At the moment, users click the Web Client link
on our Web Interface and manually install the Version 10 client. This works
fine but Im trying to streamline it hence the silent install option is
preferred.
I know there is a local IE setting to get around the Active X Control issue.
Since I am dealing with external clients, there won't be much I can do to get
around this - working as designed.
My main issue is getting the client to install silently..
Thanks
