Using a Logon Script to Install the SMS Advanced Client

One of my customers has an extensive lab environment with multiple forests, domains and workgroup computers.  SMS 2003 was deployed to help manage the configuration of all these different systems.  Between the locked down security settings (no C$, ADMIN$ shares!) and the number separate forest/domains/workgroups involved the ability to "push" the advanced client to desktops is no longer an option.  After meeting with the client last week we decided to configure a logon script to install the SMS client.  The script and associated files (CCMSETUP.EXE, CLIENT.MSI, SMSCLIENT.VBS) were placed in a folder named SMS in the NETLOGON share of the Domain Controllers.  We then configured the LOGON SCRIPT properties of the Domain Administrator account to run the SMSSTARTUP.VBS script shown below to install the client.

Now for a quick run through of the code. 

  • Declare our variables and create the objects we will be working with. 
  • Determine the path to the NETLOGON \SMS folder we are using.
  • Check to see if the SMS client is installed (Set oSMSClient ... If Err.Number....)
  • Display a timed popup message with a Cancel button
  • Copy install files to local computer.
  • Run installation script (SMSCLIENT.VBS)
  • Set commands in the RunOnce registry key to delete the SMSCLIENTINSTALL folder the next time someone logs in.
