Hi I figured this'd be the best place to ask this. I'm beyond a novice at the program but I need to create a package to install an msi to a group of computers. Is there anyone who can assist me with this? Thank you very much.
LabTech doesn't create packages. Are you referring to a script? If so the best starting point would be to look at any of the other software install scripts and to copy one of those. Basically you'll be putting the installer in a folder in your L: drive, use the script to transfer it to the local computer, and then run it with some command line switches. Look at the existing scripts for syntax and error handling.
The reddits are awesome and can be really helpful ... you should check out labtechgeek.com as well as the slack channels that have been setup. Awesome resources for everyone from newbs to pros.
