Automatic Novell client update

Recommended Posts

I want to update novell client automatically installation on user workstation (Not from the server) with all the novell client settings to be saved

I found out that ACU stand for: "Automatic Client Upgrade"

The acu.exe used the "acu.ini" and the ini used the settings.txt (perhaps the novell.txt) who all the settings where included.

i used nciman.exe to create settings.txt file

i have EDITed acu.inf to

[unattendFile]

;

; Specifies whether a configuration (unattend) file is used

; and where it is located.

;

Use=Yes

File=unattend.txt ( i have given the path in local where i saved unattend.txt)

Thus I do not get ahead unfortunately no idea what went wrong.

can anybody helpme.

I didn´t remember the name of the setup file in my last post - it´s setupnw.exe (setup*.exe)

What is not working?

If you automatically want to update the Novell Client (to a newer version):

- Use nciman to create the file Unattend.txt (or Settings.txt)

- Call the line "setupnw.exe /ACU /U:Unattend.txt" from the loginscript

/ACU checks the installed version

Run setupnw.exe /? for more info
