I cannot, for the life of me, remember the name of an application that I had
a couple of years ago. It was an app that monitored the installation of
another application and created a setup package that could be run on another
PC to install the app almost like an Xcopy install.
The app monitored all added or changed files and registry entries. It then
wrapped all changes into a single exe that made the same changes to another
PC. The purpose of the app was to create unattended installs of
applications that normally required the user to answer multiple questions
during the course of a normal install.
The application was NOT Novell Zenworks. It was much cheaper (around $99 I
think).
I need to automate the installation of applications that require user
interaction during thier normal installation process. It would be nice if I
could track all changes made by an application by comparing the pc with a
baseline snapshot. It would be even more helpful if I could use the
comparison to create the unattended installs that I need.
Does anyone know of such a product (that is NOT Novell's Zenworks)?
Thanks in advance!
