Above you wrote you installed WPKG client. WPKG client will run as a service at windows startup (even before a user logs in) and might display message while it is working (logon delay). However logon delay seems not to work properly on Vista I thought to remember. I am also using vista but configured WPKG client not to delay login. It simply runs in the background. Especially on Vista I think users cannot manage to log in and run applications before WPKG finished (unless it has to deploy some large applications which is usually only the case on fresh installations). So my recommendation is to disable logon delay. Do not put anything to your logon script. By the way: The logon script runs with user credentials (the user which logs in to the system). It might (should) not have Administrator privileges and therefore he is not allowed to install software through the logon script. If you have UAC enabled on vista you anyway would have to use the "execute-elevated.js" wrapper script (even if the user has administrator privileges). So just remove the lines from your logon script and the WPKG service will do the software installation for you at startup. See WPKG client configuration for details. > Now the package sync works great but I have two progress bars that > continues forever! –if I delete the wpkgmessage, then how to notify users? Probably because your logon script is invoking wpkgmessage.exe which might not work (wpkgmessage.exe is used by WPKG client to delay login if it is enabled, see above: I recommend not to use it). br, Rainer ------------------------------------------------------------------------- wpkg-users mailing list archives >> http://lists.wpkg.org/pipermail/wpkg-users/ _______________________________________________ wpkg-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.wpkg.org/mailman/listinfo/wpkg-users
