Actually perhaps a dumm question
but why you don’t use guest access with read-only permissions?
About the security-part, if you save the password cleartext or encrypted does not really make a difference because if you save it securely hashed you have to send the hash as credentials and thus somebody with the hash is also able to send the hash so it makes at the end no real difference, only with the hash he would need to be some developer who knows how to use the hash and authenticate with the help of it to be able to reset the accounts password.

Hello,
thanks for your feedback. After the weekend I got a bit of time. The problem is not solved even with the official version (18b1). I can not imagine doing the first run of wpkg-gp manually (GUI) for ~100 new workstations. I have to use the format "clear: password" :-((

Hello,
i could be wrong because im totally swamped with other stuff right now but as far as i can remember you can't deploy a crypted password. Because password are encrypted based on the user and the system. even if you deploy it to a machine running the same system image it would be different. Because of this its not possible for wpkg-gp to decrypt the password correctly.
Your problem is now that you are not able to safely deploy it to all the systems because the script would be on every system readable by every user?
never faced this problem sadly. After we setup new workstations we do the first run of wpkg manually which then installs wpkg-gp through wpkg and encrypt the password after the service first started (after installation).
Maybe store the script on a temporary share and not locally? i bet someone else has a better idea tho.
Best Regards,
Nils

I sending .ini file without sensitive data and modification password. Thanks for the download link, I'll try it.
I noticed one thing, I have script "wpkg_install_local.bat" with a simple content see below:

You advise me to replace "crypt:password" to "clear:password". It is not safe. Anyone who has access to the script can read the password. Using a script (.bat) I install an instance of 100 clients at a time. Some idea?
Thank you for your response.

Hey,
ah now it clicked.
So wpkg-gp is working fine on a manual installation but with a silent installation the service is not working/running.
I personally use the /ini switch on our installation. can you post your ini (remove sensitive information)?
I noticed one thing, during silent installation you have to pass the clear password to the client, it will be decrypted automatically on the first run so it can't be read out of the configuration file.try passing it to the installation client using "clear:password" and not "crypt:password". Also pass the networkusername with quotes. (/NetworkUsername "domain\user" )
You can download the latest official release (0.18b1) here:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B9Eadi-crzpOVEtTM01aYm5YNm8
But i dont think this is the issue anymore.
Best Regards,
Nils

Hello,
I'll try again. I used file "Wpkg-GP-0.17.16_x64.exe".
The service is working fine after the initial GUI installation (.exe) and all wpkg-gp task are working as well. GUI = All the choices (Features, path to wpkg.js, username and password for network share) I manually added. Service "wpkgserver" is "RUNNING."
The service is not working fine after the initial silent installation (the same .exe file). All wpkg-gp task are not working. Service "wpkgserver" is "STOPPED."
I tried the silent installation via Switch, /INI and .msi see below
* Wpkg-GP-0.17.16_x64.exe /S /Features Client /NetworkUsername ***\*** /WpkgNetworkPassword = "crypt:***" /WpkgCommand "path\wpkg.js"
* Wpkg-GP-0.17.16_x64.exe /S /INI "path\wpkg-gp.ini"
* msiexec /i Wpkg-GP-0.17.16_x64.msi /passive (The .msi file contained data from .ini)
* msiexec /i Wpkg-GP-0.17.16_x64.msi /quiet (The .msi file contained data from .ini)
Where I download the original version of wpkg-gp?
Thank you for your response

Hello,
Im not sure i understand you completely, so the service is working fine after the initial installation and all wpkg-gp task are working as well.
What do you mean exactly with performing a silent installation to client? Just running a wpkg task using the service after first reboot?
The exceptions in the code you posted are not occuring in the base wpkg-gp code but in the imported modules for the communication with the windows system.
I noticed that you are using my modification of the original wpkg-gp, have you tried the original version and does the problem occur there as well?
We have not switched to windows10 yet and i have only done some basic tests with wpkg-gp on windows10, maybe it is related to the os.
Best Regards,
Nils
PS: keep in mind that if you run the service manually using the exe that you use the system user for this as well or it can decrypt the encrypted password in your config file.

Hello,
I am using the latest version of the programming environment WPKG-GP "Wpkg-GP-0.17.16_x64.exe". I will try to describe the problem.
Tested on different hardware. Always the same system Windows 10 x64 (version 10.0.14393.0). EnableViaLGP. The file wpkg.js accessed through a domain user and password in AD.
GUI installation wpkg-gp client will be fine. Service "wpkgserver" runs fine. All WPKG-GP system is functional and installation software works fine.
When I try to perform a silent installation to client (Switch, /INI, .msi etc.), service "wpkgserver" is irregularly in "STOPPED". The service will not turn on. Below is diagnostic information.
