[wpkg-users] Just running one package at each run

My main issues are machines that for one reason or another haven't run WPKG
each day - e.g wireless machines that have failed to connect to the wireless
since the last time I've been in :(.

Also, teacher laptops that only come into the school once in a while.


For the second request, you could set up WPKG using task scheduler to run
only once per week. Schedule it to run on Monday on some computers, Tuesday
on some others, and so on.

Some tasks I have set to run always (wallpaper resetters etc) so I'd still
need them to work but maybe I could have 2 separate WPKG setups and just do
something with the second one - I'll have to think about it :)


Alternatively, create a new profile just for the new application. Every day,
update the hosts file by adding the new profile to a few more hosts. You can
do that with a script that runs nightly.

I did think about doing something like this but it would mean that each host
would have to have its own profile but that's probably the way to go so I
might try that out at my smallest site :)

Thanks for suggestions (and Chris too :) )

regards
Simon
