You can use capinst.exe to isntall both legacy and advanced clients.
However, if you are on SP1 the legacy client is not supported for Win2K, XP,
and Windows Server 2003.
You also need to place a vbs file in the same location that returns a 0 or
1.
CAPINST.exe /AUTODETECT=filename.vbs.

/AUTODETECT=<Executable Name> Installs legacy/advanced client based on the
                               return value of the executable specified.
                               The executable either exist in the same
                               directory as capinst, or should be specified
                               as a UNC.
                               A return value of 1 will install the advanced
                               client. 0 will install the legacy client.
