* Package name : wmi Version : 20070516 Upstream Author : Zenoss / Andrzej Hajda / The Samba Team * URL : http://dev.zenoss.org/svn/trunk/wmi/ * License : GPL/LGPL and others Programming Lang: C, Python Description : DCOM/WMI client implementation for Linux This DCOM/WMI client implementation is based on Samba4 sources. It uses RPC/DCOM mechanism to interact with WMI services on Windows 2000/XP/2003 machines. . This package is a Zenoss dependency mainly, but it can be used on its own. It also includes a Python module providing access to the DCOM/WMI functions. The implementation uses a small, patched part of the samba sources. It does not really make sense to integrate it into a Samba4 package yet, probably this will change in the future, when there's a stable samba4 version. Then this source should provide the python bindings only, or build the whole wmi client using the Samba libraries. Of course, this is only possible if the patches would be integrated into Samba4. In the meantime we jsut ship a patched Samba source. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
