hi guys,

im using this website to get the firefox MSI package

http://www.frontmotion.com/Firefox/download_firefox.htm

having problems, deploying it via GPO, i create a network share to the msi package, i then include full access to all the domain computers (for them to install the msi package)

create a new GPO - computer config > software settings > right click add new package and add the network location to the msi package

Security Filtering for the GPO i created i add the domain computers to it

then i link the GPO to the domain computers tree (where all my domain computers are located)

on the client pc, i type gpupdate /force to get the new policy and then i restart my pc

next time i log it hasnt installed mozilla firefox

any help as im totally lost and i really dont understand why

many thanks

Rob

i ve succesfully done it but in doing so i have disabled UAC for all of the domain users, LOL (i had to for it to install) so can anyone help me out as that be really great,

basically i only want UAC to be disabled for admins NOT users (for the GPO to install the .msi package), and when i edit the GPO they give me these options for UAC -

admin approval mode for the built-in admin account - disabled

allow UIAccess apps to prompt for elevation without using the secure desktop - disabled

behavior of the elevation prompt for admins in admin approval mode - elevate without prompting

behavior of the elevation prompt for standard users - prompt for credentials

detect apps installations and prompt for elevation - enabled

only elevate executables that are signed and validated - not defined

only elevate UIAccess apps that are installed in secure location - not defined

run all admins in admin approval mode - not defined

switch to the secure desktop when prompting for elevation - not defined

virtualize file and registry write failures to per user location - not defined
