Using MSIEXEC to install PASSPORT to all user profiles on the same PC

Product

PASSPORT PC to Host

Emulation Types

TN3270, TN5250, VT, SCO ANSI, Wyse 60

Issue

I am using the MSIEXEC command to perform an automatic install using the MSI package. However, this command only allows me to install PASSPORT to the current user profile.  How can I install PASSPORT to all of the user profiles on the same PC?

Solution

Issue the command below at the RUN command line:

msiexec.exe /qb /i "\\ServerName\ShareName\PC2HOST.msi" ALLUSERS=1 LICENSE="XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX"

or, to perform a silent install, use the following:

msiexec.exe /qn /i "\\ServerName\ShareName\PC2HOST.msi" ALLUSERS=1 LICENSE="XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX"
