Hello Peter,

Personally, I would have a central text file (on the wpkg server) that
contains lines like:

Hostname:serial number

I'd then write a script that would be run before the Acrobat install
line in your xml file. This script would read through the central text
file, looking for the provided hostname - first argument to the
script, and return the serial number.

Hi Chris,

this sounds like a solution, thank you very much. But somehow I'd like to use wpkg internal commands like the ones from Stefan below. Since we have the new release candidate it's seems to be very easy doing this inside the wpkg configs without external scripts. But it is a solution and good to know.

It is not needed to complicate things by introducing an additional
parser, since this can be done already with the latest WPKG release
candidate available at
http://wpkg.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/wpkg/wpkg/stable/src/main/resources/wpkg/

Hi Stefan,

I am already enjoying the most current versions and the great features we can use now - fantastic development here!

You can do something along the following lines:

'---code start (watch for line wraps)

<profile id="AcrobatSerials">
<variable name="ACROBAT_SERIAL" value="..." hostname="office1"/>
<variable name="ACROBAT_SERIAL" value="..." hostname="office2"/>
<variable name="ACROBAT_SERIAL" value="..." hostname="office3"/>
<variable name="ACROBAT_SERIAL" value="..." hostname="office4"/>
...
</profile>

'---code end

I think this is *exactly* what I am searching for - I can set the serials in the customer-profile I am already using for other serials, but I did not know how to match variables to a specific host.

Thank you very much for this hint - you made my day :-)

Best Regards
Peter
