Daylight Saving Time changes

[Guest Don Devenney]

Sorry if I've posted this in the wrong forum - this is the closest I could

find.

 

I've "been the route" on the support site as far as the upcoming time

changes are concerned. I was easily able to find / download the appropriate

files for desktops, servers, etc. HOWEVER, they're all ".exe" files - I need

(at least I think I do) ".msi" files so that I can push this update out via

GPO.

 

Any thoughts as to a)where I can get these files as ".msi" files or b) how I

can use GPO to push them out?

 

Thanks for your help

i believe this falls under a windows update so you should be using WSUS and

not GPO to deploy updates. GPO really isnt the best method for that..

 

If you dont want to go that route you could create a login script that

installs the update. i would imagine that this update is like all others

where you can slap a /q on it and have it go to town.

Thanks Justin,

 

Normally I would use WSUS but for some reason I haven't figured out yet this

update doesn't appear during synchronisation. Same with a few other ones

(Office SP3, for instance)...and yet I've got it set pretty much wide open in

terms of the updates, service packs, etc it's supposed to be synchronising.

Ah well, another mystery for another day. Thanks for your help
