Package of Windows VPN client
I'm wondering if anyone have made a package of the vpn-client inside windows XP.
I want to do that so I can deploy that package to all the mobile computers in my network. I did a capture with WPS but ended up with nothing... Which made my quite confusing... [8|]
Anyone done this or got any ideas of how to make it??

OS Components, service packs and the like are generally too deep for Windows Installer to address. MSI's are only for the application layer. If you have an MSI deployment method in place and want to use it to set up XP's VPN client, you should look at imbedding scripts in a Custom Action.
You should create several scripts to mimic the MSI's modes. You should at least have an Install and Remove CA. Repair may not be possible, it all depends on what you're trying to do. You'll put something like the section below in the MSI Script, Execute Deferred, right above InstallFinalize.
IF NOT INSTALLED THEN
[Your Install Custom Action]
END
IF REMOVE THEN
[Your Remove Custom Action]
END
