Trying to summarize, on win7: + WPKG-GP works only on startup + WPKGClient does not works reilable on shutdown, because windows after 10 minutes forcibly kill all running processes, so long installation never complete. First question: seems strange to me that, even Microsoft, put an hardcoded 'ten minutes' delay, really there's no knob to simply disable or make it looooong?! Even the cited 'MaxGPOScriptWait' that seems to have exactly 10 minutes timeout as default? Someone have tried to install WPKGClient, put MaxGPOScriptWait=0 and give it a try? Second question: AFAIK, WPKGClient use the ''service'' because in XP there's no shutdown and startup scripts, so start of the service are considered ''startup'' and stop of the service ''shutdown''. But also, that wpkg and the ''display helper'' WPKGMessage communicate with a simply method: probably WPKGClient redirect stdout to a pipe, or instruct wpkg.js to write to a pipe, and WPKGMessage read them. It is possible, with a simple shutdown script, to run WPKGMessage and wpkg.js and ''connect'' them? Some minor question arise, specifically to Daniel: + you propose to create a "secure" user account "wpkguser": ok, it is better, but is needed?! Eg, logoff script cannot access to shares in 'guest access' mode? + you modify some parameters, via (L)GPO or registry: you have some reference documentation/mapping/... about equivalence of GPO and registry? Eg, you have catched by trial and error or found some reference? Thanks to all. -- dott.
