i.e. If I wrote a C++ WTL based UI to drive some embedded Python COM
client logic or SQL queries do you think I'd need to do anything extra
special?

Not running the postinstall script just means that pywintypesxx.dll and pythoncomxx.dll aren't in system32. Assuming you have control over the environment this is running in, just ensuring those files are on the PATH should be sufficient.

Hope this clarifies...

For various scary reasons I need to write a log collection tool to run
on Win2k and Win2k8 R2. The tool needs to collect some WMI, SQL, and
eventlog data.
I can't reboot the computer the tool runs on, so I can't install any
additional software. The job ought to be substantially simpler if I
could write the data collection bits in Python instead of C++.

Thanks,
Bill

    In the simple case, it works fine without the post_install script
    execute,
    and so long as no embedding is attempted.

    Cheers,
