Tried - and failed with an administrative user "test". settings test is 
odd:
"Executing as test" -> OK
"Connecting to \\wpkg....\wpkg.js as <domain>\wpkg" -> OK
"Trying to read \\wpkg....\wpkg.js" -> FAIL -> Access denied...

this doesn't make much sense, because 
a) I can read the file perfectly on a cmd shell as user "test"
b) Service (and the WPKG script) runs perfectly if you turn off the 
"RunAs" function and change the service itself to not start as SYSTEM but 
as user "test". (go into services.msc, Log-On tab and change user from 
"Local system" to the dedicated wpkg-user).

So something with the RunAs-funktionality integrated into the WPKG-Client 
does not work as I expected it to :(
