Hi everyone!

I cannot find any documentation regarding the Autorun checkbox found in the Packages tab while editing or creating a policy. I understand what FEU and FUT do, but I'm at odds with Autorun. Automatically launch an application it has just installed?

Thanks!
Sal

AutoRun is used to associate installed packages with a computer for the purpose of having Casper remember what needs to be installed on a machine at imaging time. The idea being a lab that might be reimaged quite often to refresh and you could have the machines always have the software/packages without going back and pushing them after each image.
