[wpkg-users] Updating wpkg client settings via Active Directory

[Alan Adams]

I have the wpkg client msi set up, with a settings/xml file in the 
same folder, and distribute it via Active Directory. This works well. 
However if I need to change the settings file, redeploying the package 
doesn't update the settings. I *think* redeploying uses msiexec 
/update to operate. My suspicion is that the settings file is only 
imported into the client with msiexec /install. Am I right, and if so 
can it be changed?

At the moment I have to create a new AD package and deploy it to 
update settings. Not only that, but I need to remove the previous AD 
package first. While this works, I want to minimise the traffic on the 
wireless network, particularly during startup, as it has a serious 
impact on lessons.
