Jabber - Automatic Startup

cdowling_bm

Hello folks,

 

I have a significant number of Jabber for Windows users and would like to have it launch on startup.  Ideally, I want this to be included in a standard desktop build or as a packaged application that is deployed through Microsoft SCCM or Windows group policies.  Unfortunately, we do not use roaming profiles so we would need to ensure the that the "start Cisco Jabber When my computer starts" checkbox is selected for every user that logs in to the local machine.  

 

Is there a registry entry that can be changed for every local (and new) profile to force the auto-startup?  So, when a user logs in, a script runs to set the autorun flag to on. 

 

Thanks in advance.

Charles.

1) You can Enable Auto startup via the Jabber config.xml.
So you deploys jabber normally. User hast to launch jabber for first time and login. It will download the configuration file from CUCM which will set the Auto Startup On.

the problem with the automatic update feature is the end user need admin rights. and by silent unattended install the problem we face is the update closes the jabber process and after the update it wont relaunch the process automatically so people wont notice jabber is closed...
