Systems Management Server Support

Systems Management Server (SMS) provides a mechanism for pushing application installations out from the server to client systems. SMS supports all versions of Windows 2000, XP and Vista when installing products that use Windows Installer (MSI) technology. SMS requires that a client application be installed on all client machines. PaperPort was tested using SMS version 2.0 with Service Pack 2 and Windows 2000 Server with Service Pack 4. Be aware that it does not support Windows NT 4.0. The software components of Scan to PC Desktop were tested using SMS Server version 2.0 with Service Pack 4 and SMS Server 2003 with Service Pack 3.

SMS enables you to deploy a setup package per User or per System. The software components have been verified to work in the per System configuration only. The per System installation of the components can be configured to run either unattended or attended. Instructions for controlling this process are provided below.

All the software components of Scan to PC Desktop use Windows Installer Technology. The official Microsoft document describing the usage of Windows Installer-based applications with SMS (entitled "Deploying Windows Installer Setup Packages with Systems Management Server 2.0").
