SQL Server Express 2014 - Configuration.ini and command line istallation

I am in the process of creating an SCCM task sequence to install SQL Server Express 2014. I have successfully modified my configuration.ini to customize my protocols as follows;

SQL Server Network Configuration Protocols

  • Shared memory = Enabled
  • Named Pipes = Disabled
  • TCP/IP = Enabled

Is there a way to also configure the SQL Native Client (11.0) Configuration? I have opened the native client's SQLNCLI.msi (Advanced Installer)and do not see where I can make the modifications.

  • Shared Memory = Enabled
  • Named Pipes = Disabled
  • TCP/IP = Enabled

The only default setting that needs to changed is TCP/IP as named pipes and shared memory are both enabled already for both the server and native protocol.

Failing that, are there additional configuration.ini switches that are used?

HELP!!!!!!

native client configuration can't be set up via SQL Setup media. You may want to add post install task to configure client side protocols.
