What is the best way to distribute or install with policy Adobe plugins, Shockwave and Flash?
Use the package that Adobe made and drop it in Casper Admin or Build your package?

I have had no trouble distributing the .pkg installer for Flash and Shockwave that come directly from Adobe. These seem to be the only two products that work in this manner.

In my labs deploying the pkgs for shockplayer works but for flashplayer all macs needs to be logged in in order for the pkg to install properly. If I create the package through Composer using "Installed Software" for both shockwave and Flashplayer that seems to work.

I also drag the pkgs straight into Casper Admin and these work fine.
