Updating the Adobe Creative Cloud App via AUSST

Question

Recently I began rolling out the full CC suite to my mac users pointing to an AUSST server which seems to run fine for updating some of the CS5/etc products.

My primary reason to roll things this way is so I can set scripts to automate their updating of software as they do not have local admin permissions.

After the install, the Creative Cloud app that lives in the status bar prompts wanting to be updated. If I select no/quit and then call RemoteUpdateManager it does not find an update for this application.

To update this application requires admin priv's which sort of negates me rolling these apps out in this mannor. Did I miss something somewhere?

We are having the same issue. To avoid manually entering administrator credentials on each mac every couple days, wWe started using RUM. RUM works great with updating the individual apps (like Photoshop and Illustrator) but, it does not update the CreativeCloud.app. So, every couple of days, the IT department gets a call from each Mac/CC user to enter the administrator credentials so the CreativeCloud.app can make changes to the system. The defeats the purpose of using RUM. Is there no way to remotely update the individual applications AND the update/install the CreativeCloud.app?
