I am looking for a talented developer who can deliver a network software deployment application.
The application would be written in .NET. The developer should be familiar with general W2K networking - ie, login scripts, active directory, admin shares, etc.
The application will be designed to deploy a specific third party application across a standard W2K network.
To do this, it will first retrieve a list of machine names from AD. It will then launch a ping at each macine to determine if they are turned on.
With this list, it will then connect to the admin share on each "alive" machine and deposit a file in the 'all users' startup group.
Once complete, it will keep track of which machines have had the application delivered, and which ones have not. It will continue to contact each machine on its master list until the cycle is manually stopped or each machine in the list is complete.
The application should have a commercial-quality interface and be very user-friendly.
