Computer scientists love recursion, or bootstrap, so this it a try to write a WPKG xml file that... installs itself.

I use this setup from now to install all the stuff with a single command; I've simply build up a batch file that defines the same environment variable defined in settings.xml and start directly wpkg.js, as:
:: Startup script for wpkg, for the first installation :: :: These are not (still) defined elsewhere, define it. :: set WPKGROOT=\\FILE\wpkg set SOFTWARE=\\MEDIA\Software set VPSERVER=MORPHEUS :: Call directly wpkg.js, note the %* at the end, that permit to add custom parameters... :: cscript %WPKGROOT%\wpkg.js /synchronize %*
