 Pushing out Office 2007 via group policy
How can I push out Office 2007 via group policy to my Windows 7 users? I have the installation disk and our corporate serial number. I do not want to have to manually install this across the board. Please help me automate my roll out!

Software/Hardware used:
Windows 7, Office 2007, Group Policy

Answer Wiki:
1) Copy the installation files from the disk to a public share (e.g. \serverdistributionAppGlobOffice 2) Run setup /admin so you can customize the installation via a new MSP file. Create a new MSP file in the root directory where the setup.exe is located. 3) Customize the installation and save the MSP. 4) Create a new GPO (e.g. MSOffice2k7Push) and add this msp file to startup script 5) Assign the GPO to the OU where your regular users are located (not admins). **** NOTE: You don't want office to be installed onto Servers so don't apply to where admins reside.
