Since there have been new versions of the PowerShell client released since I started, what is the best way to get the old PS clients updated? I know that I may need to go back and touch each of the existing servers, but is there a way with the updating feature to have it look at a share for a new version based on folder name? This way, I can have all servers look at this particular path for updates and when I want to update, I just copy the file to a folder with the correct naming convention and it auto updates. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Thanks<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'><br><br>This e-mail message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
