Hi,I would like to ask,is it exist some simple manual/tool for preparing required MST file, which I need to use to install/deploy BOINC 6.x.x on our network (100 computers).I still use version 5.08.15 where I was able to use BOINC_MST_Creator_1_3_1.hta from www.thelazyslug.com. What I need to change:
-install as service
-don't add to ADD/REMOVE program
-change install/data directory
-attach project (or not,I can put there later)
Please,I am very sad because I am not able to do it.I tried to follow http://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/Deploying_BOINC_on_networks, but it doesn't match and it is not describe exactly what I need.
Thanks for any help.

I'm going to look over the Lazy Slugs app this weekend and see if I can update it to the new installer format or help Lazy Slug update it.

Hello, any luck yet? I am sorry, but I want to be part of BOINC, but it must be easy to install/upgrade on 100 computers, I can not install it by myself : (
