Problem Details

Deploying myPBX windows launcher to many PCs and set the right config manually to each PC takes a lot of time. Here is a solution for deploying the setup already with the right configuration in the PC.

Resolution

• We can use the Microsoft Group Policy for myPBX deployment. - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/816102

The command line parameteres of myPBXsetup.msi can be used to deploy the configuration via a .mst transform file. In orca the parameters have to be set in the Property table.
