Hello Gurus,
I wanted to install the framework on a network pc that does not have any
keyboard/mouse. I believe Service Packs can be applied in such scenarios, is
it possible to do so for the framework?

any help/hints is greatly apreciated..

thank you,

I built myself my own unattended install disc for XP, which integrated
..NET 2.0 into it. To do so, I downloaded the installer, and then during
the first login, I run it with the following command line which
installs it silently:
dotnetfx.exe /q:a /c:"install /q"

Not exactly sure how you want to deploy it to your network computer,
but I'm sure that command will help you.

if this works on 2000, it might help, i can put an entry in RunOnce.. how
do you find out about the command line params availible for these
distributables? what about for the MSI 3.0.. because for .net to be
installed, requires MSI 3.0..

basically, what i am trying to do is get uptodate a buch of pcs on a network
to have .net 2.0 framework. these pcs include some XP, and mostly windows
2000.

appdeploy.com and msfn.org helped me a lot when looking for this kind
of info. Could usually find the switches I needed there.
