Installation Options
To control the installation behaviour the installer can be run with switches as defined here http://www.jrsoftware.org/ishelp/index.php?topic=setupcmdline
In particular you may be interested in switches /SILENT, /VERYSILENT and /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES to deploy installation silently to users.
In addition to the standard switches, you can use the parameter /serverurl="your server address" to set the environment variable that defines the licence server location.
