  1. Dan have you ever had to deploy the Echo 360 classroom version via SCCM? I can get the application to install correctly but it never registers itself on the server end. If I run it manually it works fine.

  2. Hi mate, yes i also deploy classroom capture, here is my installer… your MMS admin will need to add the machines hostname to your MMS server for it to work.

    Install.cmd contains:

  3. Hi Dan,

    can I have a copy of your Echo360 Device monitor script, I would find that extremely handy for our deployments here. Also can workstation details be sent to the server somehow automatically, (Maybe via XML file), or is that side manual setup only? Your thoughts would be appreciated. Great script btw really handy thankyou

    cheers
