We use AD Group Policy to handle the installation of the actual WPKG
software. It's the only software that's managed via Group Policy, with
the rest handled via WPKG. It might not be applicable in your case,
but that's how we get around the "chicken and egg" problem.

We use the pspasswd tool, which is part of the pstools package
(http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896649.aspx).
