Is it possible to configure CID's to deploy policies?

RWSysEngr

Hi,

I was just wondering whether it's possible to have client get their policies from a CID?  Based on what I've initiall read, CID's only houses installation files and updates thus, the question.

Thanks!

    Hi,

    You can configure most components from the CID.  You would typically define a policy in SEC, use ExportConfig to export that policy to an XML file.  You place that in the CID and then run ConfigCID.exe to update the checksum file.  On the next update the clients pull down the config and apply it.

    ExportConfig info is here, that's a good place to start:

    Then take a look at ConfigCID.exe.

    Sauconf.xml and savconf.xml would be the files for configuring AutoUpdate and SAV respectively.  There are others.
