Installation Active Directory
On my LAN I have 2500 PC with JRE 5 Update 6 and 500 PC that rus as a kiosk with java applications (not connect to internet).
I deploy software using active directory GPO with msi pachage .
How can I Instruct new java 6_2 to remove the old pachage 5_6 (what msi properties must be set ?))
What Is the setup properties that disable the java update ? This is important in kiosk.
Thanks

Installation is outside the domain of java itself.
Thus controlling installation depends on what you are installing with, like msi. So for solutions to that you must look to msi, not java.
I believe the license agreement for java specifically requires updates. You should read it.
If I am correct then you can not disable it withoug specific permission from Sun. At the same time you get that permission you should ask them how to disable it.
Note that turning off means that your kiosk certainly shouldn't have general access to the internet. And you had better be very careful about what access is allowed at all.
