WPKGClient 'stable' 1.2.1. I've some portable system that, when offline, complain about to wait the full logon wait time to logon. Log and event viewer tell nothing special, apart 'connection error' as some other people write in this list. I've tried to enable 'offline mode', but in this way the logon delay desappear suddenly and in event viewer i got only: Tipo evento: Errore Origine evento: WpkgService Categoria evento: Nessuno ID evento: 1 Data: 02/09/2008 Ora: 11.10.50 Utente: N/D Computer: NEOBE Descrizione: Server connecting: failed. Seems that the same 'windows/hardware/moon_cycle' trouble that prevent WPKG to work was hit by 'offline mode'. This is rather good (no more stalls), but clearly bad box will never have WPKG run anymore... Could be that WPKGClient will run some script/command/... when offline mode will fail? Eg, if offline mode test fail, run this (eg, schtsk cscript ...) or schedule WPKGClient run on shutdown... Why the timeout value of offline mode was limited to 10 seconds? Could be that simply adding a timeout and a number of tries (try 8 times with 15 seconds of timeout each) we could solve this trouble? Thanks. PS: my virtual box suffered of a 5/10 crash, so could be that simply i have to rebuld it; my test box have the infamous 3Com Gigabit LOM (3C940) ethernet card... -- dott.
