RSA SecurID Software Token 4.1 Administrator’s Guide
2: Installing the Application 19
Enterprise-Wide Installations
You can install the application on a large number of computers using a third-party
deployment tool, such as Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS). If you
specify a silent installation, the application is installed on all computers without
requiring users to interact with the installation program. A silent installation is ideal
for organizations that do not allow nonadministrators to install software.
With Microsoft SMS or another third-party deployment tool, you can include token
files (SDTID files) in your deployment package. Configure the SMS package so that
tokens will be installed to Desktop or to My Documents. This way, tokens will be
imported automatically when a user starts the application.
When you create the SMS package, you must use a specific script so that each user
receives a unique token. For example, use a script that contains logic such as the
following to ensure that only the target user receives the token.
• On Windows XP:
“if systemresource.name=LAPTOP-LAP, copy username.sdtid c:\Documents and
Settings\username\Desktop”
• On Windows Vista:
“if systemresource.name=LAPTOP-LAP, copy username.sdtid
c:\Users\username\Desktop
