No, it's not true. I've been running workgroups here for over a year and at other instalations for some time before that. I've never had problems one either workstations nor slaves. On a tight schedule, where you're installing custom stuff on a daily, sometimes even hourly basis, it's not practical to do it any other way.
If you've had problems with workgroups you should throw it at support.

Is that true? When we first setup our farm, I had to install shaders etc. one by one per machine for reasons I won't go into. I haven't found time to setup the workgroup method but I always intended to, automatically assuming it would be better..... Can you elaborate on why you think it's a bad idea? I'm really curious....
One by one, per machine isn't that bad actually, I just run a batch through smedge and bingo, it's all good.
Cheers,

But every user has to set the workgroup path in its preferences... And I would not use that for render slaves, gives you more trouble than installing it one by one. -- --Original Message-- -- From: owner-xsi@(protected) [mailto:owner-xsi@(protected)] On Behalf Of kim aldis Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2004 1:14 PM To: XSI@(protected) Subject: RE: How to install XSI addons with another user
personally, I'd set up a workgroup that all your users can see, instal there and point all your users to it as a workgroup. The factory path would work but you'd need to re-install every time you upgraded or re-installed Xsi. You'd also need to isntall on each and every machine but the workgroup would mean only the one install.

Try Factory install. This gives access to all users to the add-on. However you still need administrator privileges to install the add-on.

I want to install an addon under another user when I'm logged on as administrator using the fallowing command:
xsi -i abc.xsiaddon -silent -overwrite
How can I define another user destination? The problem is that the current user who should use the addon doesn't have the windows rights to install it.
Any ideas?
