<br>
Well, WPKG is not a really good tool to use for user-specific
settings for a number of reasons. It is intended as a tool to
install software for all users on a workstation.<br>
<br>
Your issue with "race conditions" is one example of this. WPKG
sets the registry during boot (I am not sure how you execute WPKG
though), and the setting is reset by the roaming profile. I would
believe that configuring per-user settings is better done through
a logon script (executed under the user's environment), or by
utilizing a tool as Active Setup: <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_Setup">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_Setup</a>
to make sure all users on the computer has the same environment.<br>
<br>
I didn't explain it too well, did I? :)<br>

But what can I do when I have to set registry keys during
delayed logon with roaming profiles? <br>
In my opinion they are always restored from the roaming
profile during login when they first have been deleted by
the uninstall cmd during delayed logon. Or am I wrong?

<div bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000"> Hello list,<br>
<br>
I think I've a conceptional problem: I've got
computers running W2k which are not capable of
the "taskkill" command used in the firefox
package to kill any running firefox-processes.
So I decided to use pskill instead of taskkill.
But on the first run of pskill it asks the user
to accept the eula. I found a .cmd file on <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://forum.sysinternals.com/topic8783_page7.html"
target="_blank">http://forum.sysinternals.com/topic8783_page7.html</a>
which sets a registry values indicating that the
eulas of all sysinternals tools have already
been accepted.<br>
Now I tried to make my own package file with
this command, but only working for pskill:<br>
<br>
<packages><br>
<package <br>
id="pskilleula"<br>
name="Accept pskill EULA"<br>
revision="1"<br>
reboot="false"<br>
priority="99"><br>
<br>
<check<br>
type="registry"<br>
condition="equals"<br>
path="HKCU\Software\Sysinternals\PsKill\EulaAccepted"
value="1"/><br>
<br>
<install cmd='REG ADD
"HKCU\Software\Sysinternals\PsKill" /v
EulaAccepted /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f'><br>
<exit code="0" /><br>
</install><br>
<br>
<-- <upgrade
cmd='%SystemRoot%\System32\msg.exe * /TIME:10
"upgrade"'><br>
<exit code="0" /><br>
</upgrade><br>
--><br>
<br>
<remove cmd='REG DELETE
"HKCU\Software\Sysinternals\PsKill" /v
EulaAccepted /f'><br>
<exit code="0" /><br>
</remove><br>
<br>
</package><br>
</packages><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The value gets correctly set and works fine. My
problem now is the remove command: When a client
is booting up the registry key gets deleted by
wpkg irunning in delayed logon mode. But when I
login as a domain user using roaming profiles,
the old registry becomes restored from the
roaming profile on the server and the key also
gets restored. But the wpkg.xml file in system32
has already deleted all information belonging to
"pskilleula" and the package is marked as not
installed.<br>
<br>
I know, it doesn't make much sense to remove
this key, but I'm interested in the problem
itself. How can I act in such circumstances when
designing my own package files?<br>
<br>
