I want to create a Smart Group based on Plug-Ins but It's not working for
me. Is the Plugin Title looking for things located in /Library/Internet
Plug-Ins? If so, what do I use as the Title - just the name of the plugin
file?

For example, if I create a test group and use "Flip4Mac WMV Plugin" as the
title name it finds 0 computers. However, we should have several thousand
computers with that plug-in installed.

    Chad-

    Flip for mac is also an application.

    you would search for application title called WMV Player.app

    you need the file extension at the end or it doesn't like it.

    see attached

    Thanks

    I was just using Flip4Mac as an example. I need the Plugin Title to work. We've got a 3rd party web app that requires a plug-in and there's no
    associated application.

    Chad-

    go to your web interface

    Settings- Inventory options - inventory Preferences and click the software tab

    click the Add custom search path hyperlink

    add the plugin path /Library/Internet Plug-Ins

    make your smart group based on

    plugin Title has Flash Player.plugin

    You should be good to go.

    Flash player was just an example ;0)
