Autodesk Design Institute 7 Installation Guide 9. Deployment of Other Products Network deployment is not available for some products. See the Product Installation table on page 14 for information about products that do not support the Deployment wizard. Autodesk Revit Building 8 provides its own Deployment wizard. See the following topics for information about deploying other products. Distribute Products That Do Not Support Network Deployment For those products that do not support network installations, you can simplify stand-alone installations on each workstation by copying the contents of the Autodesk product CD to a shared subfolder on the server (for example, Autodesk/DWF). This allows workstations to install the software from the server. You must enter the same registration data at each workstation, or the product activation will not work.
