I'm fighting with a Dell Laptop and wpkg. Client is searching infinitely for the wpkg's server and I have to wait 60minutes so the "delay logon" countdown finally end... Plugging in the network cable is not changing anything (& reboot & so on...) I'm about to throw a brand new laptop through the hall :D GS ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
