access is denied when running cscript

I'm following the Installation instructions on wpkg.org.  I added 
"cscript \\roark\wpkg\wpkg.js /synchronize /quiet" to my windows task 
schedule as Administrator, and added Administrator to my samba server.  
When I run "cscript \\roark\wpkg\wpkg.js /synchronize" as Administrator 
on the windows xp computer, it errors with "access is denied"  The user 
exists on the windows xp PC, and on \\roark and the password is correct 
and the same on both.  Any suggestions on how to correct this so that 
the cscript command will run properly?

Can you access this share at all?

Do:

dir \\roark\wpkg\

and

type \\roark\wpkg\wpkg.js

work from cmd?

If not, check your Samba logs, and make sure you use correct credentials.

Why not, should be useful.

Please put your request on http://bugs.wpkg.org, if enough people want 
this feature, it should be added.

Re: access is denied when running cscript

Hey sorry I didn't follow up with an additional post.  I had to chmod 
644 profiles.xml, hosts.xml, and packages.xml, then all was well.

It seems that your patch got stuck because of its size, so I had to 
accept it manually:

Re: Make Firefox the default browser?

I'm having a lot of trouble with this...
Google got me a script that almost works, but I think there are more 
registry keys to make Firefox the default browser. When you run Firefox 
it still thinks it's not the default browser, non-admin level users 
can't set it as default, and there a few html files that still want to 
open in Notepad when double clicked.
Anyone want to help with this?

script is attached

Re: Package Download patch

Hi

	Ah no Problem.

	Just found a bug in the patch... execute=always/once packages are not 
"downloadable" because I've just added the feature to installPackage(). 
I will change this as soon as I get called without arguments. ;)

	Greets,
		Andre

After installing Firefox with:

"%WpkgRoot%\Packages\Firefox\Firefox Setup 1.5.0.2.exe" -ms

Run:

Set_Firefox_as_default.cmd

-----------------------Set_Firefox_as_default.cmd--------------------------
copy %Wpkgroot%\Files\nsBrowserContentHandler.js "%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\components"
"%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -CreateProfile default
"%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -setDefaultBrowser -silent
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Add lines 330 331 in the original nsBrowserContentHandler.js

326:	    if (cmdLine.handleFlag("preferences", false)) {
327:	      openPreferences();
328:	      cmdLine.preventDefault = true;
329:	    }

Normally wpkg is executed under the systems account without
administrator intervention. Will "-setDefaultBrowser" just set the
default browser without actually creating or profile or do other things?

To set firefox to the default browser I used the REG file at msfn.org .
But there are 2 problems:

1. Firefox is still complaining that it is not the default browser. When
I click a link in MS word, firefox opens this link but afterwards word
says that he cannot find a default browser

2. 8.3 file names are used. If you have multiple mozilla products, its
not shure that "MOZILL~1" matches "Mozilla Firefox".

For point nr 2 I manually altered the REG file to use long file names.
Apparently this seems to work, but I don't know if there are
sideeffects.

I run wpkg as system
and use this package definition:

<package id="setffasdefault" name="Set FireFox as Default Browser"
         revision="1" priority="11" reboot="false" execute="once">
                <install cmd="%WpkgRoot%\Tools\Set_FF_as_default.cmd" />
                <upgrade cmd="%WpkgRoot%\Tools\Set_FF_as_default.cmd" />
                <remove cmd="%WpkgRoot%\Tools\Set_IE_as_default.cmd" />
        </package>

this create a default profile in  C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Application
Data\Mozilla
if that is a concern you could have:

rmdir /S /Q "C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Application Data\Mozilla"

in Set_FF_as_default.cmd

----------------------Set_FF_as_default.cmd-------------------------
copy /Y %Wpkgroot%\Files\nsBrowserContentHandler.js "%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\components"
"%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -CreateProfile default
"%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -setDefaultBrowser -silent
rmdir /S /Q "C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles"
