Re: Group policy problem: can not assign or publish applications to us



I don't know the exact problem but here is a link from Event ID.net which
may give a clue from responses other users have given with the same event
ID's.

http://www.eventid.net/display.asp?eventid=108&eventno=1181&source=Application%20Management&phase=1

What I would try is to create a new Group Policy with the Software
Installation configured as you want. The other thing I would check is to
make sure that the users have proper permissions to the share where the .msi
packages are located such as giving users group read/list/execute
permissions. The links below may help. --- Steve
