When distributing applications to Windows 98 or Windows 2000/XP workstations, Novell® ZENworks® Desktop Management supports two types of software packages: Microsoft Windows Installer (MSI) packages and ZENworks snAppShot™ (AOT/AXT) packages.
Based on the benefits of using the native Windows Installer, Novell recommends using Windows Installer packages rather than snAppShot packages.
If you decide to use ZENworks snAppShot, the following sections provide information about snAppShot and instructions for using the utility.
