[wpkg-users] Is there any way to display a popup?

Hi,
I don't know if this can help.
For my part, I add a line like this one in the package definition in package.xml :

<install cmd='%COMSPEC% /c %SystemRoot%\System32\msg.exe * HERE COMES YOUR MESSAGE'/>

As WPKG do when notify is on

Hope this help.

P.S : I have never tried this before login, I use wpkg in a scheduled task.

I just tried it and it does not show up.  Maybe I have not explained
myself good enough.   I have a domain admin user called wpkg which has
admin rights.  The wpkg process runs under this user at login time no
matter what real user logging in to the machine.  Lets say a usernamed
Joe logs in.  Joe does not have admin rights.  Wpkg runs at login time
with user wpkg but the wpkgMessage does not show on Joe's screen.
