Hi, the problem is deploying WHFC to all the PC's ! We have potentially over
1000 pc's that may eventually want access, and it is preferable to put the
install file in a share so that users can run it themselves and save paying
someone to walk round every PC and log in with admin rights ! Ideally it
would be good to specify some of the options by default as well, so that all
the user would put in would be name and email. Any ideas ?
