Re: [wpkg-users] WPKG and Vista UAC
WPKG path user is domain account (in Domain Users group), which have access to network share, where is SW WPKG execution context users is SYSTEM This combination doesnt work (access denied) Tomasz Chmielewski napsal(a): Vladimír Pšenička schrieb: I tested clean Vista instalation joined to domain with WPKG client (service) run with SYSTEM account, UAC enabled and result are: In event log there are errors for each package, example: Command '%SOFTWARE%\tools\acroread\AdbeRdr812_cs_CZ.exe /sAll /rs was not successful.

Configure WPKG path user and give network credentials there - it doesn't have to be a domain admin account; a limited user which can only access this share is sufficient and recommended. -- Vladimir Psenicka IT system engineer Prodeco a.s. - Reporting bugs, all WPKG mailing lists http://wpkg.org/Support ___ wpkg-users mailing list wpkg-users@lists.wpkg.org http://lists.wpkg.org/mailman/listinfo/wpkg-users
Re: [wpkg-users] WPKG and Vista UAC
Yes samba share, samba version is 3.0.24, I dont have ACL support enabled. But WPKG path user (domain user) can access samba share (read) without problem. Marco Gaiarin napsal(a): Mandi! Vladimír Pšenička In chel di` si favelave... So WPKG service with SYSTEM account cannot read packages from network share. Samba share? I've hitted recently a trouble that i was not able to track down and understand, only to circumvent. After upgrading from sarge (samba 3.0.18) to etch (3.0.24), wpkg *ON* *SOME* *WINXPsp2* *BOX* exploit exactly this behaviour: 'guest access' works from every user apart SYSTEM. The strange was that only some machine have thta, and every box have the same windows verion, revision, patchlevel, ... I've circumvent this enabling full ACL support and setting ACL for the share, before that i use simple permission based on group and force user/force group statement. Never understood why. ;( -- Vladimir Psenicka IT system engineer Prodeco a.s. - Reporting bugs, all WPKG mailing lists http://wpkg.org/Support ___ wpkg-users mailing list wpkg-users@lists.wpkg.org http://lists.wpkg.org/mailman/listinfo/wpkg-users
Re: [wpkg-users] WPKG and Vista UAC
So local setting done with wpkg service are ok (no errors) on Vista, example: package id=firewall - vnc name=Open port TCP 5900 on Windows revision=4 reboot=false notify=false priority=100 execute=once install cmd='%COMSPEC% /C if exist %SYSTEMROOT%\system32\netsh.exe netsh firewall add portopening TCP 5900 VNC enable subnet' / remove cmd='%COMSPEC% /C if exist %SYSTEMROOT%\system32\netsh.exe netsh firewall delete portopening TCP 5900' / /package so I tested same settings on XP machine and doesn't work either log from samba machine: [2008/05/23 12:32:45, 3] smbd/error.c:error_packet(146) error packet at smbd/reply.c(676) cmd=117 (SMBtconX) NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED [2008/05/23 12:32:45, 3] smbd/process.c:process_smb(1110) Transaction 111 of length 86 [2008/05/23 12:32:45, 3] smbd/process.c:switch_message(914) switch message SMBtconX (pid 5113) conn 0x0 [2008/05/23 12:32:45, 3] smbd/sec_ctx.c:set_sec_ctx(241) setting sec ctx (0, 0) - sec_ctx_stack_ndx = 0 [2008/05/23 12:32:45, 2] smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(569) guest user (from session setup) not permitted to access this share (install) [2008/05/23 12:32:45, 3] smbd/error.c:error_packet(146) problem is that guest user cannot access share, so I added guest ok = yes to smb.conf, before this I had Domain Admin account in WPKG execute context user, so access to share wasn't problem, but Vista with UAC didn't work (need to elevate user rights). Final I have: --- WPKG path user: domain user WPKG execution context user: SYSTEM guest ok = yes in smb.conf in share definition on samba machine --- and everything works fine on XP and Vista with UAC Thank you for your help Tomasz Chmielewski napsal(a): Vladimír Pšenička schrieb: Yes samba share, samba version is 3.0.24, I dont have ACL support enabled. But WPKG path user (domain user) can access samba share (read) without problem. Check your Samba logs. The easiest way would be to: Set them to log level = 3. Make the log size of 1000. Clear the log (but not remove it!) for the given workstation - from bash prompt, do: # /var/log/samba/log.workstation_name Then, from a cmd.exe window do (started as Administrator): net stop WPKG service net start WPKG service Check Samba log for that workstation, it will give you some hint on where you connect to, with what credentials, and why it fails (or succeeds). -- Vladimir Psenicka IT system engineer Prodeco a.s. - Reporting bugs, all WPKG mailing lists http://wpkg.org/Support ___ wpkg-users mailing list wpkg-users@lists.wpkg.org http://lists.wpkg.org/mailman/listinfo/wpkg-users
Re: [wpkg-users] WPKG and Vista UAC
Yes they are on different shares (machines): WPKG (wpkg.js, xml files etc.) are in netlogon share on PDC (samba) and software installers are on BDC (samba). Is this any problem?

What is still not clear for me: is your software share a different one from the WPKG share (the one where you keep wpkg.js)? If yes, you may indeed have problems accessing them. Using one single share for both software (installers) and WPKG (wpkg.js, config.xml, package definitions) is the recommended one I'd say. -- Vladimir Psenicka IT system engineer Prodeco a.s. - Reporting bugs, all WPKG mailing lists http://wpkg.org/Support ___ wpkg-users mailing list wpkg-users@lists.wpkg.org http://lists.wpkg.org/mailman/listinfo/wpkg-users

When WPKG client starts on Vista machine and start installing some SW a see in event log permission errors (about need to elevate user rights, although user installing SW is member of domain admins group) I have czech Windows so I apologize for mistakes in translation. Is possible to install SW with WPKG correctly on Vista with UAC enabled? Without UAC everything works fine... Does it also happen if you configure WPKG Client to start as a SYSTEM user? I don't have Vista, unfortunately. Enyone else using Vista seeing this, too? Anyway, I'll forward this issue to a WPKG Client developer more familiar with Vista... Or, if you really have to start the service as a domain administrator, you may have more luck asking a Windows-specific newsgroup this question: How can I disable UAC for only one domain Administrator, but leave UAC on for each and every other user?

I tested upgrade (http://wpkg.org/WPKG) and it doesn't work:
I added some (hopefully) more detailed instructions and verified that
they work on my workstation:
http://wpkg.org/WPKG
Could you verify if it works for you?

Can I please confirm why you use start? Is this for extra debugging? Looks like a race condition exists, due to using start. The process is started for upgrading wpkg, and at the same time wpkg continues and checks the latest version is already installed - but it isn't installed yet because the background task is still executing. Probably better just to call the batch file directly.
