Radmin 3 - Network Installation Instructions - How to make an MST file

1. Making ".REG" file with your Radmin settings

Install Radmin Server 3 on any domain computer (not domain controller) and launch "Settings for Radmin Server". Click on "Permissions" and give rights according to your policies. The use of local "Administrators" group is advisable (sample computer's name is DC1):

Here you can make any additional customization of Radmin Options. Then your ".reg" file will have more entries.

Then launch regedit and export
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Radmin\v3.0\Server\Parameters

Sample name of this file is "DomainAdminsAccess.reg":

2. Making an ".MST" file with selected registry settings

3. Inserting license code to be applied during installation (optional)

You can automate Radmin Server 3 activation, in case if you have one license code for your multiple computers where Radmin 3 is intended to work. To apply license code for domain installation, you will have to insert your license code into MST file.

Click next several times until you come to the 16th step, "Modify Setup properties" window. Click Add and make a key "RADMIN_LICENSE_KEY" with your license key in value:

4. Finishing creation of ".MST" file

If you skipped previous step of this guide (#3), then click "Next" several times. When you are at the last step click "Finish" – "Exit".

In order to test the ".MST" file you have created you can install Radmin Server on any test computer. To do so, run msiexec with following command line parameters (replace the paths in this example with your .MSI and .MST files' names and locations):

Then check if the settings are applied correctly.

With the MST file created you can continue following the Network Installation Guide from step 2.
