Installing normally to a local computer and then copying the programs to a network location, as a way to create a network based installation has several advantages over an "Administrative Installation Point":
-
The fundamental configuration file editing has happened.
-
The Local installation need only include the required applications.
Note:
Running a normal (Local) installation, and choosing a network drive as a target for the programs will fail to install. This is because file editing is performed with the local System Accounts credentials, which are not normally recognized by other computers.
