AutoDesk AdminImage Deployment via Batch File

For an automated installation of multiple AutoDesk products using AutoDesk's Admin Image utlity, use the following switch when executing setup.exe (/w). This would then work nicely in a batch file. An example would be; //myserver/autocad/adminimage/setup.exe /w /qb /i //myserver/autocad/adminimage/autocad.ini //myserver/3dsmax/adminimage/setup.exe /w /qb /i //myserver/3dsmax/adminimage/3dsmax.ini pause Hope this helps...
