I do not think it has got a usable solution, yet.

[WwTIPPYwW]

activation of Norton's stuff is machine specific, so there is no real good way to do it.

[oaom]

I get a solution from http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=15884&st=70
I will add bold to differences

Assuming you've installed and activated your NIS
1- Making a new (subtle) CfgWiz.exe

If you open your original folder of NIS, you'll find a file named CfgWiz.exe in this directory:
X:\...\...\NIS\External\CommonFi\SYMSHARE\CfgWiz.exe
and in
X:\...\...\NIS\\SETUP\SYMLT\COMMON\SYMSHARE

You can find a copy of this file in:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\CfgWiz.exe

Also, the activated file symlcsys.dll is found in:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\CCPD-LC\symlcsys.dll

1. Now, create a new folder in any location on your hard disk and name it ABC, for example.

Copy CfgWiz.exe from its location and paste it to ABC. Eliminate the read-only property of CfgWiz.exe, then rename it to xCfgWiz.exe

2. Inside the folder ABC, create a new folder and name it CCPD-LC

Copy symlcsys.dll from its location and paste it into the new folder CCPD-LC
If you can't copy symlcsys.dll from its location and paste it easily, then open your Task Manager and terminate the process "symlcsys.exe" first.

3. Now, open WinRAR. Go to: File --> Browse for folder. Browse to the new folder ABC.

. Highlight both CCPD-LC and xCfgWiz.exe

. Go to: Commands --> Add files to archive, The "Archive name and parameters" dialog box appears. On the "General" tab, press the button "Profiles..." and choose "Default Profile".

. Still On the "General" tab, in the field "Archive name", type CfgWiz.exe

Then, choose these parameters:

- Archive format: RAR
- Compression method: Best
- Archiving options: Create SFX archive

You don't need to play with other parameters.

. Go to "Advanced" tab. Press the button "SFX options". The "Advanced SFX Options" dialog box appears. On the "General" tab, in the field "Path to extract", type:
%systemdrive%\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\

Then, choose "Create in the current folder".

. Go to "Modes" tab, choose: Hide all + Overwrite all files.

. Press "OK" on all dialogs, then close WinRAR.

Now, you should find "CfgWiz.exe" inside the folder ABC. We'll need it later.

2- Now
Copy your original folder of Norton to C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\Install\, then rename it to NIS2004.

1. Replace the original file CfgWiz.exe in:

C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\Install\NIS2004\NAV\External\CommonFi\SYMSHARE\
and in :
C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\Install\NIS2004\\SETUP\SYMLT\COMMON\SYMSHARE\
with the CfgWiz.exe you've made in the first step.

Now, delete the entire folder ABC. It's no longer needed.

3- CD-Key

Inside NIS2004, create a new text file and name it navreg.reg, but not navreg.reg.txt

Copy the following then paste into navreg.reg. Replace the xs with your key, but without typing dashes:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Symantec\CCPD-LC\KStore\00000082\0000000e\0000000a]
"Key"="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

No more reg files needed. Thanks to Stalkie.

4- Virus definitions updates

If you wish, you can go to this link to download an updater file:

http://securityrespo...ges/US-N95.html

The file to download is named somewhat like this: 20040331-019-i32.exe

Extract the file into C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\Install\NIS2004\VIRUSDEF\ using WinRAR. Extracted files should replace the original ones.

Thanks to vohinhlangtu for the idea, and Nooto for the link.

5- Batch file

ECHO.
ECHO Registering NIS Pro 2004
REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\Install\NIS2004\navreg.reg
ECHO.
ECHO Installing NIS Pro 2004
start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\NIS2004\NAVSETUP.exe /qb
sleep 10
del "%systemdrive%\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\CfgWiz.exe"
ren "%systemdrive%\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\xCfgWiz.exe" CfgWiz.exe
ECHO.

If you use this approach, then you have to download sleep.zip from http://unattended.ms...files/sleep.zip. Extract sleep.exe and put it in C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$$\System32\, so that it will be copied to your C:\Windows\System32\ before you install NAV.


BUT THERE is a problem with this batch
actually NIS need to restart so what is the command line switch to prevent it from restarting

REBOOT=ReallySuppress is good enough.

Got it running Norton internet secure 2004 with antivirus 2004 took me 2 day's.

First ih have norton everything 2004 pro 5in1.

Was doing it like OAOM discribed but got some problems with winrar and sp2 and after making the selfextracting file it would not extract both during install only dll was copyed to program files\common files/symantec shared.That was after some hours when i saw that the extract link put in winrar got a . \ in front of %Programfiles% but still after the chance still only dll was put out.CFGWIZ.EXE was not extracted what ever i tryed.

What i had to made sepperate selfextracting files one with CFGWIZ.EXE in it and the other with the folder CCPD-LC with the symlcsys.dll in it and name it what ever you want.

Dit not copy the activated CFGWIZ.EXE to the NIS2004 Org folder

And ik have NO NAVSETUP.EXE and NAV.MSI and SETUP.MSI would not work

I install it with SYMSETUP.EXE

This is what i have in start.cmd

ECHO.
ECHO Registering NIS Pro 2004...
REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\Install\NIS2004\navreg.reg

ECHO.
ECHO Installing NIS Pro 2004...
ECHO Please /wait...
start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\NIS2004\SYMSETUP.EXE /qb /silent /noreboot /no_ui

ECHO.
ECHO Stopping Services...
ECHO Please /wait...
taskkill.exe /F /IM CFGWIZ.EXE
taskkill.exe /F /IM ccApp.exe
taskkill.exe /F /IM symlcsvc.exe
taskkill.exe /F /IM ccSetMgr.exe
taskkill.exe /F /IM CCEVTMGR.EXE
taskkill.exe /F /IM SAVScan.exe
taskkill.exe /F /IM NAVAPSVC.EXE

ECHO.
ECHO NIS2004 Some Components Removel...
ECHO Please /Wait...
del "%systemdrive%\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\CFGWIZ.EXE"

ECHO.
ECHO Copying Activation...
ECHO Please /Wait...
start /wait CFGWIZ.exe
start /wait symlcsys.dll.exe

The 2 above are the 2 selfextracting files (name does not matter) and during install i only get progressbar of NIS2004.

HMTL internetbar regkey removel did not work have to look where those 2 are nis and nav removel.

Also had to use capital letters so see how youre files are.

After reboot got the settings screen and was activated tryed it two times.

Cheers

You can use /qn instead of /qb to hide progress bars.

Keep up the good work. When oaom asked, I searched using Norton Internet Security as a keyword. I didn't find any topic for it.

I hope that this thread will be the official guide, now. I think it could be found via a search.

Yeah i know about gn. But after 2 day's off messing with this and 2 crashes in VMware i had almost give up hope to get it going unattended.Had it almost done when xp crashed for the second time.As long as i don't have to do a thing it's ok by me LOL

Was alot of trying and came across some issuas that are maybe related to SP2 like why was only one file extracted and that .\ witch was auto added after i clickt twice ok to finish making the new exe file/files.

Yeah most of what i could find was about NAV2004 but with fooling around and trying different things i finaly got it.
