AW: Re: [wpkg-users] Can wpkg install software with base rights ?

[Tobias Richter]

hi,

thank you Tomasz for your answer.
Yeah - I mean logged on user, sometimes my english doen`t work... ;)

i think your software is great - thanks a lot !

i use unattended to install the pcs. it is a very nice system to get a
windows and the software on a pc, but i doesn`t help you, when you have to
upgrade or remove anything.

you use unattended and wpkg. How do you make it ?

are you install wpkg right after unattended and the rest of the
installation is done by wpkg ? or do you install all your software by
unatteded including wpkg, so after the complete unattended setup you can
easily install,upgrade and remove software with wpkg ? And do you use the
todo.pl to install software ?

i have a lot of software to install on every machine and sometimes the
install scriptes are a bit tricky. now all my install scriptes use the
todo.pl and some of the other perl scriptes made by the unattended.sf.net
team. do i have to / should i build this scripts new the "wpkg style" or
can i just use the "old" scriptes with wpkg like "<install
cmd='Z:\bin\todo.pl blabla.bat'> ? How do you make it ?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Regards,
Tobi

What do you mean by locked-on user? Logged on user perhaps?

WPKG will install software even if noone is logged in.

Yes.
Configure the packages, turn on your workstations, and everything will
install automatically in the background; noone needs to log in.

Yes, me for example, but I guess many others, too.
I just "install" WPKG during the Unattended part.
