Thanks for the response. But if the computer rarely restarts then my
packages will rarely be distributed, correct? If I plan to use wpkg to
distribute security patches, then perhaps I should schedule Windows to
reboot once a day?
BTW My first wpkg use was a patch for the recent wmf vulnerability:
<package
id="wmf-fix"
name="wmf-fix"
revision="0"
reboot="false"
priority="0">
<!-- If log file exists, then we've already installed the patch so exit-->
<check type="file" condition="exists" path="C:\NETINST\LOGS\wmf-fix.txt" />
<install cmd='regsvr32 -s -u %windir%\system32\shimgvw.dll' />
<install
cmd='cmd.exe /C "echo patched wmf exploit > c:\netinst\logs\wmf-fix.txt"\'
/>
</package>
