How to set Updates with 11.3 when using Apple Remote Desktop for installation?

[Steve_Maser]

So for all pre-11.3 versions of Flash Player on OSX, I have just pulled out the "Adobe Flash Player.pkg" installer package from the installer .dmg and used Apple Remote Desktop to deploy Flash to the Macs I manage.

However, when doing that with Flash 11.3, this leaves the "Updates" setting in the Flash Player System Preference set to "Notify me to install updates".

I'd like to push something that would set this to "Allow Adobe to install updates".

Is there a way to modify the .pkg installer to have the System Preference set to that value (or push/copy some other .plist file to the clients to have that setting enabled?)

Thanks!

I would be very interested in knowing if there is a way to do this as well!

I poked around a bit and the file seems to be:

/Library/Application Support/Macromedia/mms.cfg

I'd like to get some confirmation from Adobe that this is the correct file to push, though (it seems like it as it only contains this):

AutoUpdateDisable=0

SilentAutoUpdateEnable=1

That is correct.  This should also be noted in our Admin guide.
