Configure APP-V 4.6 RC Client via Windows 2008 R2 Active Directory

Question
-
I have installed Windows 2008 R2 / APP-V 4.5 Virtualization Server and Windows 7 / APP-V 4.6 RC Client.
Is there a way to centrally configure my APP-V 4.6 RC Client via Windows 2008 R2 Active Directory GPO ?
I know there is an ADM template for APP-V 4.5 Client (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=67CDF9D2-7E8E-4D76-A552-FD82DBBFF9BC&displaylang=en) but i'm not sure we can use it for APP-V 4.6 RC Client.
Any ideas ?

Microsoft put an Beta ADM template ("AppVirtADMTemplate(Beta).msi") along with the App-V 4.6 RC download on Connect. So if you downloaded all the 4.6 files from Connect you probably already may have the ADM.

Hello,
Considering the things I have seen you should be able to use the 4.5 ADM template somewhat.
I am sure they will release a new ADM-template once its officially released and supported.

The 4.5 ADM will work on a 32bit 4.6 RC client, because the settings (registry underneath) are the same.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SoftGrid\4.5\Client]
Maybe you can't manage any of the new settings.
It won't work however on a 64bit client, because the registry underneath is different.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\SoftGrid\4.5\Client]
If you want you can edit the ADM yourself. Microsoft will probably release a new adm when 4.6 finalizes.
