Abstract

See full text

A system and method for deploying one or more software packages (18) over a communications interface (1). A push trigger (10) is sent to a server computer (2). In response to the trigger (10), the server computer (2) generates a notification package (12, 13, 14). The notification package (12, 13, 14) is sent over the communications interface (1) to at least one client computer (2). Each client computer (2) contains at least one notification transport (15, 16, 17) which recognizes a corresponding notification package (12, 13, 14). The notification transport (15, 16, 17) then instructs the server computer (2) to automatically push the software package (18) to the client computer (4) over the communications interface (1). E-mail transport (15), UNC transport (16), and opportunistic transport (17) are described.
