Hi guys,

I don't usually deal with much Windows stuff so I'm a little out of touch. How do you sys-admins create your MSI installer packages?

I've downloaded WinInstallLE 2003 trial version and I can use the snapshot utility (discover.exe) to do a reasonable job. The only thing is I need to create an MSI for Sophos Anti-Virus 5 as we need certain default settings changed. Being an AV app is has services and when doing a snapshot it either doesn't pick these up, or if I try to start them again it spams me with an error saying the service cannot start.

Does anyone have any experience with this kind of stuff? Any tips?

Thanks.
 
Pants! Not what I wanted to hear :D

You know if there is anyway to use a batch script to change settings, I guess I'll have to look into it ....
 
Well the main options I need to change once an install has been pushed out is the "email if virus found" and ondemand scanning options.
