So... What you're asking for is WSUS ;) It would be interesting to see wpkg modified to do the same thing, but I'm not sure if it will work smoothly. You'd need someone to manually edit the packages.xml with each update and place the KB files into the right share. Could be done, but it would be a lot better with a tool to automate it all, which is what WSUS does.

Not sure if that would be more work or not, but it should go faster. Speed isnt an issue here. The problem is that i want to be able to install updates _after_ Office was already installed. So when new updates come out i just add them and they'll automatically be installed. And I'd like to keep the copied Office CDs as original as possible since I wont be the one who is going to install all the unattended+wpkg stuff on the servers. Those who are going to install everything are most of the time not very skilled when it comes to computers. Telling them they need to slipstream a bunch of updates just wont work. - jens ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ wpkg-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wpkg-users
