[wpkg-users] wpkg is not working

[Thomas Rauscher]

well thanks, I fixed that!

but the problem still exists.

here's the result of "cscript \\home\wpkg\wpkg.js /synchronize /debug"...


Reboot-Cmd is standard.
base directory \\home\WPKG.
Hosts file contains 3 hosts:
pille-win
room1-pc.+
room2-pc.+

settings file contains 0 packages:

packages file contains 11 packages:
wpkg1
wpkg2
wpkg3
time
firefox
thunderbird
winvnc4
wsusconfig
google-earth
thunderbird
firefox

profiles file contains 8 profiles:
other
test
default
custom
administration
room1
room2
test

Using profile: default
profile: default profileNode:
number of available packages: 0
number of packages to remove: 0



what's up with that "settings file"? where do I find it and what's its 
purpose?

a settings file doesn't exist on my share, by the way...

thanks!
