[wpkg-users] Problems getting wpkg working

[Adam Egan]

Hi,

I'm having a few problems getting wpkg to work. I'll first tell you my setup.

I'm running Samba on FreeBSD, and the wpkg clients are Windows XP
Professional SP2.

I have created a \\server\wpkg share, and have installed the 'WPKG
Client' onto my XP machines (I have tried both CLI and GUI methods).
When I restart my XP machine, there does not appear to be any sign of
the WPKG starting (I have ticked 'show interface' for testing purposes
also). I added a sample package of putty.exe with the code below:

<package
        id="putty"
        name="Putty"
        revision="1"
        reboot="false"
        priority="1"
        execute="always">

        <check type="file" condition="exists"
path="C:\windows\system32\putty.exe" />
        <install cmd='cmd.exe /C copy /y
\\192.168.0.5\software\putty.exe c:\windows\system32\' />

</package>

this is a member of the 'default' profile.. and I have applied the
default profile to all clients like this:

<host name="host1" profile-id="default" />
<host name=".+" profile-id="default" />

The result is that nothing appears to have happened, and indeed,
putty.exe is never put into the System32 folder. The username and
password for accessing the share are fine (proved with 'test
settings'), and I am running WPKG as the 'SYSTEM' account.

Any help would be immensely appreciated!

Adam
