Deploy Adobe Products via Group Policy

To apply Adobe products over Group Policy you first have to apply on adobe.com to "Distribute"  Go to install Adobe Reader for example and in the corner you will see the option for IT Administrators to distribute the product:

(this is in Spanish, but it will be the same option in English)

On the following page you will need to fill out a form, and select with products you want to distribute.  I picked them all, Flash, Shockwave, Reader and Air.

Submit the form, and usually within 24 hours Adobe will send you a link to a special page that contains MSI file that you can use to deploy to your clients over Group Policy.

Then put your files on some network location accessible by your domain computers.  Remember in this case I'm am going to be deploying via Computer Configuration not User, so that the install occurs silently before login. So you need put the file some place on the network where the Computer's SYSTEM account can access it.  Anywhere in Sysvol or Netlogon should be fine.

Now just launch Group Policy Management and edit the GPO where you want to deploy these products:

Voila, go run a gpupdate /force on one of you clients and it should prompt you for a reboot.  Upon login check Programs and you should now see your products installed.  If not most likely the network location where you put the MSI files is not accessible.
