Hi,
I am using Altiris Console -DS/NS and I would like to know if it's possible to install an application directly from a shared network drive without having to package it as MSI? like for example running the executable directly in Altiris console--do I need a script for that?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Sam,
We mostly use the "run script" function with Altiris DS 6.9. Here is an example:
"\\%DSSERVER%\PATHTOEXE\Firefox Setup 3.5.2.exe" /INI="\\%DSSERVER%\PATHTOEXE\Firefox_withprompt_nodesktop.INI" /norestart
This will install Firefox on the client machines using the exe from the Altiris Server. Of course you could change out %DSSERVER% with you file server path.
Hoping to help,
Josh
