[wpkg-users] Trouble enabling PowerShell Remoting from WPKG

[Keith Jones]

Okay.

 I can't see much wrong there either :-(

 It's now almost 1:00am here so I'd best run away but I'll work on this tomorrow morning.

Cool.

 Everything you've done so far looks right to me too. I'm just going to have a quick look at the powershell code. Brb

Hi Keith,

    WPKG runs under the SYSTEM account, from the WPKG service.
