Another cross posting on Microsofts own internal discussions on software distribution to my team blog

Hmm.. This seems like a missing feature. I really only want to write this once and post to two blogs. That and trackback would be great.

[edit] - I originally had multiple blogs - I moved from Blogspot to self-hosted WordPress; now consolidated to a single blog.

I posted a lot of the previously internal ZENworks Linux Management/Red Carpet Enterprise configuration documentation. I dated it for December 2004 - which was when I posted it internally at Novell. Some day I must go back and clean up the formatting - it’s a raw cut and paste from the ZENworks internal wiki.

It has been claimed by some that:

Microsoft Active Directory along with Group Policy Object support for software distribution is everything a customer needs to manage workstations.

Here we will discuss that further.
