I am running IMail with over 200 mailhosts, and countless users per box, 243 boxes... All settings would have to be manually updated... I would have to run through each and every hive file in the registry, and point all new settings, keys, and values to updated files... Would be a daunting task that I wouldn't want to venture in to...
Thank you for the suggestion though. :::::::::::::: ...Ending Transmission ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jonathan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, March 16, 2002 12:44 AM Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] A few modifications I would like to see for IMail 7.06 > Why not just monitor the changes the patch/upgrade applications make to the > registry and files, then apply those same updates to the remote servers?
