I am new to deploying applications via group policy.  I assume the application 
should be assigned and not published?  Should the application be deployed to the 
user or to the computer?  Is the application only deployed once or will it be 
deployed each time the user logs in and the group policy is applied?  Is there 
any way to track when the application is deployed.

RE: Reader, Acrobat, and Flash security updates

2010-02-19 Thread Crawford, Scott
I recommend assigning, especially for apps that most people will
use...like adobe reader/flash. When it's assigned, it will get installed
on startup and no worries. This can slow boot times when there's a new
app to install, but that's a fairly small price to pay for consistency,
imo.

It depends on the app, but I'd recommend assigning to the computer. Some
exceptions might be the admin tools or apps with limited licenses, but
in general, I prefer other methods of limiting access to apps.

It's only deployed once.

One thing I do is to check the box to uninstall the app when it falls
out of the scope of management. Now when there's a new version of flash,
I just remove the old .msi, add the new one and on next boot, the old
gets uninstalled, and the new gets reinstalled. It may be a fine line,
but it feels more like a fresh install to me with the added plus that if
I ever change my mind about having Flash installed campus-wide, I can
just remove the GP, and it will uninstall automatically. To me, that's
worth the extra time to un/re-install my apps.

RE: Reader, Acrobat, and Flash security updates

2010-02-19 Thread Jim Dandy
On Win XP when an msi is being pushed via GP, a window pops up and says
managed software is being installed.  On Vista and 7, the Window doesn't
appear.  Is there a way to get the notification on Vista and 7?  I think
it's helpful for users to be reminded why it's taking so long for their
system to boot.

To further expand, I'm quite impressed with Adobe's willingness to work
within an MSI/Group Policy framework. I find it VERY refreshing to be
able to download a working MSI that I can just slap into GP and deploy
site-wide. Additionally, their customization wizard for Acrobat reader
is excellent for making MSTs.

While I'm less than enthused about their endless barrage of patches and

For Flash you need to register to get a redistribution license.

Well at least I haven't violated any licensing agreement by posting what I
found on the web. J

It’s only necessary to stay compliant to their licensing requirements. 

 

For what it’s worth, posting those links violates their licensing agreements
for that software as well.

These have been posted on other websites.  Doesn't seem that filling out the

How do we get just the patch(s) to distribute?  I’m not seeing that on their
site.

Questions regarding patching Flash and Reader via GP...  Is there a way
that once this procedure is setup that it will pull new updates/patches
when they come out or is this something that needs to be downloaded
frequently and then pushed out?

To further expand, I'm quite impressed with Adobe's willingness to work
within an MSI/Group Policy framework. I find it VERY refreshing to be
able to download a working MSI that I can just slap into GP and deploy
site-wide. Additionally, their customization wizard for Acrobat reader
is excellent for making MSTs.

While I'm less than enthused about their endless barrage of patches and
security bugs, I'm very thankful that they've made the installation
process so painless. Contrast this with QuickTime - blech.

In light of that, if filling out their license form is helpful to them,
I'm more than happy to oblige.
