Description (last modified by Nicolas)

Hi, because scripts from www.thelazyslug.com (linked from WinDeploy?) are not working any more with new version of BOINC, Lazy doesn't respond and I am not able create own working MST file, I would like to ask for new way of installation. Is is possible just put to installation directory of BOINC some XML/TXT file with all required setting and use common way of installation in AD (instead MST files)?

I need this configuration:

  • change path to C:\Program Files\Something
  • define my project accounts
  • installation method=service (local service,no account!!!)
  • disable screensaver
  • disable start boinc when user sign on
  • disable start manager after setup completes
  • remove boinc from program files
  • remove all shortcuts
  • set right to installation directory only for SYSTEM and DOMAIN ADMINs

Please think about it, because now I am not able upgrade 120 computers because MST file :( and I am sure I am not alone.

I attach my last MST file, but it is not working and I have no idea why :(

And good luck, you are doing great thing!Thanks!
