Is that required - or can I give them a zip with just the binary and have them drop it into their current darcs directory, replacing the old EXE? >> 2.

Yeah, an older one though. > then following these instructions should not break anything: > http://wiki.darcs.net/DarcsWiki/WindowsConfiguration Well, that's what they did to begin with. With some additional site-specific stuff from our internal wiki.

We definitely have had problems of putty not finding the agent when launched by darcs, and we suspect that it has something to do with the wrong copy of putty being launched. Could it be that the putty binaries distributed together with darcs are somehow different than what you get when you install the latest version of putty from the web?
