You mean that you can directly and manually execute WPKG on a remote 
node, after a change to the configuration for example?

I use "SC STOP WpkgService" and "SC START WpkgService" locally in my 
script to restart the WPKG service. But according to the documentation 
(like <http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb490995.aspx>) it can 
also be used remote:

sc [ServerName] stop ServiceName

and

sc [ServerName] start ServiceName [ServiceArguments]
