    Default Deploy Java 1.6_16 with options

    Does anyone know how to adjust a Jave client deployment? I need to set two options. I have never done this with a Java clinent and do not know where to begin.

    1) disable the Java “Next Generation Plug-in” from within the Advanced tab in the Java Control
    2) disable “Automatic updates”

    In Windows XP (noted in your profile), the Java Control Panel is located in your Windows Control Panel.

    In the advanced tab, click on the + sign next to "Java Plug-in" and uncheck the heading below that entry.

    Uncheck "Check for Updates Automatically" under the Updates tab.

    Editing this on one or a few computers is cake. I need to do this on 500 computers. I want to deploy it with these options. The end users are NOT smart enough to do this on their own.

    How do I customize a deployment. I searched Sun's site, but cant find anything specefic.

    Have you tried creating an msi file after doing a custom install on a machine? In most cases that works.

    I found that these two settings are controled in the Registry. Looks like I can install Java with the default options and then edit the registry as part as an add on script.


    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Plug-in\1.6.0_16]
    "UseNewJavaPlugin"=dword:00000000
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Update\Policy]
    "EnableJavaUpdate"=dword:00000000


    Any one know how I can execute a REG file silently?
