Windows Server - .MSI

I am trying to create (which I have done) a GPO to push .Net 2.0 Framework to
24 computers. I have converted the .exe to .msi with freeware (Advcance
Installer 6.2), created the GPO and pused it out.

Computers see it, shows window after applying security settings and before
you login, but my problem is that .Net 2.0 Framework requires user
interaction to finish and runs in to the ULLA acceptance. Therefore it may
get pushed but not installed

How can this be accpomplished, to automate an installation that requires you
to choose options?

Thanks to those that respond.

Hello teddkilroy,

Check the vendors website from Advanced installer to find a solution without
requiring a user interaction. It is not part from MS support. Normally during
a package creation you can automate all userinteractions, so that the user
have nothing to accept.

The easiest way for this official patches and updates are the WSUS 3 SP1
server. Or you can use the command line install for msi packages:

Child window opens behind main window Windows Server Since a few weeks quite often (but not always!) when I click on a button which creates a child window (like selection of a file in a directory, or an alert etc) nothing apparently happens except that I cannot do anything on the main window. Actually the child window has opened, but stays behind the main window! So I have 3 choices: press Alt-F4 (which doesn't always work) or minimize t work. Any suggestion?

strange difference between RWW on SBS 03 and SBS 08. . . . SBS 08 opens an SSL window that it states must remain open in order to keep your Computer / Server connection (remote rules have a inactivity time-out period of XX minutes.

Are you in the OWA window rather than the RWW? The Official SBS Blog : How to Configure the RWW Timeout: http being caused by the firewall is not affected by anything set on SBS. The 'intermediary' window seems to poll the client side RDP (the windows closes automatically if you close RDP) and also the original browser window which brought it into being (close RWW and the intermediary window and RDP close) but does not send 'keep alives' to the server, which is about 08 changes how people RWW into a computer, since you have to keep the little window open to maintain your RWW connection, since there appears to not be a keep-alive for that window, the firewall stops seeing traffic and closes the connection, like a firewall should do, and
