Office 2003 RIS / Group Policy Problems
Hi,
I hope someone might have some clues on this one, I've tried hard to find an answer, but so far haven't managed. I have a RIS Image, which has Office pre-installed in it. It gets deployed to machines, and the machine is automatically assigned to an OU which has a Group Policy that installs the same Office install that was built into the image to start with. The outcome is that Office removes itself, apart from Publisher... I have to then go back into Add/Remove programs, and re-tick all the applications (Word, etc). Any ideas? The transform file in use specifies to leave old versions of Office on there, and I've also tried it with upgrading previous versions, but neither helps. Obviously the fix is to reproduce the original Image without Office being installed, but that would be very time consuming for what appears to be more of a bug than anything. (It's because the machine has a new name after the RIS to the name that the Image was built with which is why AD thinks it's unmanaged and then re-installs a managed install of Office). Any ideas welcome, this has been annoying me for a year now and I've not fixed it! Thanks in advance for any replies, Steve |
