I'm trying to install the DOS client of WPKG on 64-bit Vista Business SP1
and am getting an error.  Apparently it is not installing the "Windows
Packager" service to services.msc.  It looks like the instsrv "Windows
Packager" "C:\Windows\System32\srvany.exe" command is failing.  However,
c:\windows\system32\srvany.exe exists.  Any ideas?

C:\Users\Administrator>\\roark\wpkg\wpkg-install.bat
