Hello,
I want to install Outlook from a network, but it seems that I have insuficient knowledge to do this, I will explain more:
My client is win XP, my server is windows 2003 server ; I have done an administrative installation for office in a shared folder "NETLOGON" after that I used Office Ressource Kit (ORK) to generate an mst file which contain the configuration for office.
What I want is that when a user logon to the Domain on his computer, the silent installation of outlook start. So, I create a batch file that start when a user logon. The batch file contain this code below;

Why not use software deployment as a Group Policy as instructed in the ORK?
Your logon script will fail since a user doesn't have installation rights.
Also if WAVE-28 is your domain, it won't work either since the path
reference should be to the server name that the shared folder is on and not
the domain name.

In addition;
Surely you were not talking about the default NETLOGON folder where you
created your administrative installation point of Office? This is not where
the NETLOGON folder should be used for.
