Push out changes with CMW?

G

Is there a way to push out changes to the setup of Office XP? We have
deployed office xp thru GPO with an MST attached. I have tried to use CIW
and modify the MST for the install and re-deploy the package, but that
doesn't change anything. I made changes to the MST with CMW, but so far it
looks as if you need to manually run this locally on the boxes to get it to
work. Is there a way to push out the changes made using CMW, preferably with
GPO? Thanks.

Hi Gil,

An MST file works on initial setup runs. The CMW files
are feature changes.

I've looked thru those already. I was just wondering if anyone knew how to
push out the CMW files. The links you sent me just say that after you
complete you CMW you have to locally run them on the user's computer. Thanks
though.

Hi Gil,

MS doesn't list a supported method for
using policies to push CMW files, it's largely due to
the way GPO is used that it doesn't always handle the
CMW changes.

Sometimes, you can replace your existing, original MST file
with ont that contains your changes and redlopy the package,
but the MS recommended approach with settings changes is
uninstalling, and then deploying with the new MST (transform).
