Autodesk confirms this and is working to address this in a future release.skatterbrainzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01375101979702884965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7801766992264242251.post-4027874452813589412009-11-18T19:36:44.176-05:002009-11-18T19:36:44.176-05:00What is the issue with User rights vs. admin right...What is the issue with User rights vs. admin rights?

Again however, time will tell. Stay tuned.skatterbrainzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01375101979702884965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7801766992264242251.post-1029887314076768742009-11-12T09:07:09.946-05:002009-11-12T09:07:09.946-05:00We mentioned to them that the new GPO package the ...We mentioned to them that the new GPO package the Deployment tool creates is actually the best thing they have going for automated deployments. It's barely mentioned in the documentation, so a casual user (admin) would likely not even know it exists. Our company supports quite a few CAD products from different vendors as well. But I have to say that Autodesk has shown the most effort in improving their tools and methods. It's just a few key issues that we're hoping can be improved, which would take it from being difficult to easy for deployment. We shall see.skatterbrainzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01375101979702884965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7801766992264242251.post-42865304513910017202009-11-12T07:48:38.560-05:002009-11-12T07:48:38.560-05:00Amen to all of the above.

They need to wake up to the fact most organizations dont permit end users admin rights and that computers do not get used exclusively by a single user. People want to use software deployement tools be it AD/GPO, MDT, SCCM/SMS, Softgrid, Altris etc and if a competitor embraces these technologies the cost saveings for large users are substantial!Red Pandahttp://www.enm.bris.ac.uk/staff/amnoreply@blogger.com
