AutoIT for coorporate software installations?

[Agathorn]

Hi all!

I browsed the web for MSI installations and stumbled upon AutoIT which seems nice for automate software installations that doesn´t support sending switches to .exe or .msi installations.

I have a few questions I hope you can answer for me.

Does AutoIT support installing software from UNC network paths using another AD-account:s credentials? The software we distribute isn´t available to our users in our company and should stay that way.

We use "altiris" in our company and are able to send scripts to a computer and to define which AD account credentials should be used when executing the script? So do you think AutoIT is the way to go?

Seems easier then for example WISE studio and better to really. If it can be used the way I think.

Hope you understand what I´m after

cheers

It sure can.. RunAsSet() can be used to set an alternate credential and UNC's are supported.
