be used by any user of that computer. Generally, you would assign the
deployment to a computer that is used by a large number of users.
NOTE Autodesk products are designed to be installed on a computer so that any
user who logs on to the computer can run the software. If you assign a deployment
to a specific user rather than a computer, you may encounter problems when a
second specified user tries to install or uninstall a copy of the program.
The following outlines the advantages and disadvantages of using group
policies.
Advantages
■ Works well with deployment functionality.
■ Allows you to add custom files through the deployment wizard.
■ Allows deployment to workstations.
Disadvantages
■ Prohibits the passing of command-line parameters to an MSI executable.
You must use scripts instead.
■ Prohibits customization of application settings, other than what is set
while creating a deployment.
