Howdy,

We are interested in remote installs of salt-minion on Windows hosts, the
Wndows options we are looking at require an .msi file.

Looking at the tooling to create an msi:
https://github.com/saltstack/salt-windows-msi

the learning curve looks non-trivial.

Is there by chance, one available pre-built which would do a default install:
salt-master=salt, name=hostname, start=True
?

Thanks,
Kent

Hi Kent,
my goal is to have a 64bit msi of a 2016.11.1 Minion by the end of the week.
If you prefer an buit msi intead of building one yourself, I would be glad to provide it to you.
Being an msi, you can configure the three items you mentioned.

Best regards,
Markus
