Browse to SharePoint 3.0 Central Administration and deploy the solution under Solution Management link • Or • Use a STSADM command line: • Stsadm.exe –o deploysolution –name UserGroup.wsp • Switches: • -allowgacdeployment • -immediate • -force • -allcontenturls • 3. Use STSADM command to execuite admin jobs: • Stsadm.exe –o execadmsvcjobs
