Installing software by group
|
Hi,
I prepared an EXE file that I would like to deploy according to group membership. The EXE file located on a share folder.
Do i add to my login.bat a line were I call the KiXtart scripts to run? (I am sure that yes)
In the script itself I am going to use:
InGroup option with the IF else.
IF users are in the group then I will say SHELL and have the path to the EXE file.
Am I in the right direction?
Thank you

shell '\\server\share\folder\program installer.exe'
endif

Does your login.bat currently execute KiXtart + script? If it does then you will edit your existing KiXtart script and add:
Code:
if Ingroup("xyz")
shell "%0\..\program.exe"
endif the %0\..\ executes the EXE from the same directory where your login.bat resides.

I never tried... Do it and see.
A simple test will let you know.
