After many moons of wandering around in the forums just looking about thought id finally register and post something.
I have created a multicast package to first distribute the .exe, and then a second package which installs from peers / cache.
The majority of the PCs have been successful with a ext code of 3010 (where a reboot is needed to complete the installation). However, there have been 16 out of 50 PCs which has returned a status of "Failed" and the result of "AS".
Here is an example of the log file:
Processing package : .net 35 Framework SP1 (Includes 2 & 3 SP2)Fri, 28 Nov 2008 09:16:01 File (\\hhlandesk01\ldpackages\DotNetFramework35SP1\dotnetfx35sp1.exe) is cached locally

What does the exit code 5100 mean? Is there a pre-requisite which is missing or a problem with the .exe? Baring in mind this is the full packages downloaded from Microsoft site.
This installation is needed for our in-house software upgrade in the next few weeks.
