Extract the Apple Remote Desktop 2.0 client installer
Authored by: drkgrn on Aug 03, '04 01:13:36PM

I've had to manually install the client on three of our 48 Macs from failures with the upgrade from 1.2.4 to 2.0. After the initial failure all other attempts failed with an error something like "can't replace the file..". If I was to do it all over again, I would extract the package and push it with ARD 1.2 and not rely on the "upgrade clients" feature of ARD2.

Extract the Apple Remote Desktop 2.0 client installer

Ditto here.

I tried to use the update feature and it didn't work on any of the ~100 machines we have.

After using the Create Client Installer feature, we were then able to deploy the update without a hitch.
