I'm trying to change some of our computers to run WPKG during shutdown.
I've used wpkgclient to change the setting, and saved it. I have a package
(Adobe Reader) which should deploy to the computer.
It installs using msiexec /i /qb, so there should be a progress bar.
During shutdown (Windows 7) I s

I've been trying to create a package which will update Adobe Reader,
removing any of several possible existing versions first. An added
complication is that in the past I've installed two different MSIs which I
now discover install the same version. I therefore have to try using both
msis in turn t
ess it, or contact the
application vendor to verify that this is
a valid Windows Installer package.
It usually means there is a type in the path.

However the issues described above are making me think it still isn't
going to work.

this works, I want to minimise the traffic on the
wireless network, particularly during startup, as it has a serious
impact on lessons.

't found an
equivalent registry setting to make it start the wireless before
logging in. The problem is not that the wireless is slow to start -
you can leave the computer at the login window for an hour, and the
wireless still hasn't started. It waits for someone to login before i
hosen to reduce the risk of stopping wpkg while it was doing an
installation, against the risk of the laptop being shut down before it
had started - many lessons are only 15 minutes long.
