If you are considering the use of InstallShield Tuner for Lotus Notes to roll out your Notes Clients, then you owe it to yourself to head over to Andy's blog to get the best information on this tool. This SnTT tip adds a specific function to his excellent information. Sometime, in the middle of a client rollout, we were asked to add Client Single Signon to the MST. After several attempts to get this functionality added to the MST, without success, Lotus Tech Support provided me with a TechNote that resolved the issue.

FOR A NEW INSTALL:
To modify an MST in the InstallShield Tuner to install the Client Single Logon Feature for a new install, follow these steps (for upgrades, see below):
- Create a new MST.
- Open the Table Editor Section --> Feature Section.
- Go to the ClientSingleLogon row, to the Level -i2 Column.
- The default value for this column is 101; this needs to be changed to 1.
- Go back to the Setup Organization --> Features --> Client Single Logon Feature section, and you will see that it is now set to "This feature is installed on the local drive".
- Save and close the MST.
- The client can then be installed silently, as described in the document titled "General Overview of How To Perform a Silent Install of Notes 6 Client" (#1109400).
FOR EXISTING CLIENTS:
To add the feature to an existing client manually, launch the install again, choose to modify the install, and add the Client Single Logon Feature. To install the Client Single Feature silently, use the ADD the feature when calling the MSI, for example:
Msiexec /i "\\path\to\installfiles\Lotus Notes 6.5.x.msi" ADDLOCAL=ClientSingleLogon /qb+
and use:
/qn for a completely silent install (no user intervention) with no progress bar, or
/qb for a silent install (no user intervention) with progress bar.
