Client Server installation designing

Good day,

Our company is installing VB apps
and updates on each computer (on each server pc and each client pc!).

We want to enhance this setup and implement a client server installation wherein the server will install the product from the server side alone and update to each client pc automatically (remove the manual labor of installing apps to each pc).

One way is to develop a utility to update the client's version and deploy the product.

* What approach or technology is the best way to resolve this problem (Winsock, etc.)?

* Is there any products or suggestions or recommendation that would help this scenario?

Any help or feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

What do you mean by remote installation services? built into windows 2000?

How can I use that or help me in the scenario that I have stated earlier? Please elaborate.

Thanks.

Dear friend,

I do not mean to be rude with you, but what you are asking for is called "Computer Consulting".
You cannot expect us to elaborate in these forums. These forums are meant to answer programming questions, otherwise how do we make money?

Anyways, for the sake of the forum I will give you a quick answer: Place the updates on a Shared drive and connect to the workstations using PC Anywhere or Remote Desktop Connection.

Good Luck!
