Scripted install

[DEaton66]

If I want to deploy this to a large number of users, I would need a way to install the server (and a pre-determined set to settings) with little or no user intervention. Are there command line arguments for the installer(s) that could specify features such as:

- Quiet - no user input required
- ConfigFile:[path_filename] - file with default settings such as default password, security type, service settings, etc..
- Reboot - Reboot the machine after install completes

With this feature, I would deploy it to a department each night and have an economical employee do the work for me.

Thank you for the nice forum and awesome product.

Hi,

we had a perfectly silent scripted install that worked with no user-intervention or popup-boxes on the target machines. Using WinVNC and TightVNC, that is.

Somehow, Ultr@VNC manages to block the entire process when using "winvnc.exe -install" in order to install the service. Ik pops up a message saying:

The WinVNC service was succesfully registered
The service may be started from the Control Panel, and will
automatically be run the next time this machine is reset
[ OK ]

...and my CMD script blocks.

Does anybody know of a way to work around this?

did you try winvnc.exe -reinstall.
Boxes are still shown, but in non blocking mode.
