silent install

i work in the it department of a law firm and i am wishing to create an msi to install remote control software via a login script which runs everytime the users login. this will only be temporary obviously as the program only needs to be installed once... but i would like to use the msi to set parameters because there are a lot of user promts when installing the program and i dont want the users to change any settings which are particular to our network. please any tips at all would be helpful i am toying with it to see what i can do but if there is someone who already knows exactly how to do this that would be a great help. thank you.

Hi,

It is not quite clear what you trying to achieve. Please provide more details.

However if you want to run the msi package in silent mode then you can use the following command line:

1. msiexec /i package.msi /qn (no UI)
2. msiexec /i package.msi /qb (basic UI)

Regards,
Gigi
