I don't know. I see the issue concerns more users - so perhaps we should add something like a "laptop mode" to WPKG Client? Something like that on the "logon delay" page in WPKG Client preferences: ^ Enable laptop mode ___Server address___ Server IP or name With that explanation when Help button is pressed: ########### Laptops are not always connected to the local network. If logon delay is enabled, and the server is not reachable, it may take some time before the operating system gives up and returns an error. If we can't reach the server IP or name with a single ICMP packet (ping), don't delay the user anymore. Note: if you have a firewall on a server and/or a workstation, make sure you can ping the server from the workstation, otherwise, enabling this feature will prevent WPKG from working. ########### Please feel free to comment. -- Tomasz Chmielewski http://wpkg.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
