While it could be done much more safe in another way: http://wpkg.org/index.php/Viewing_software_installed_on_workstations The wpkg.xml files stored on the server might be parsed by a server process instead of directly trying to connect to any database instance from WPKG. Additionally this could probably impose some security constraints as well. The client needs to know the password to feed back data to the server (no matter if using a PHP script or direct DB connection). As user machines usually have to be regarded as compromised I prefer not do have such a feature. If somebody really wants to feed back wpkg.xml directly by the client then I could imagine creating a package with "execute=always" attribute which is doing the parsing and storing. Or executing a batch file instead of wpkg.js directly which then runs wpkg.js and the "feed back" script right after. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.wpkg.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. wpkg-users mailing list wpkg-users at lists.wpkg.org http://lists.wpkg.org/mailman/listinfo/wpkg-users |
