Hi all,
i'm trying to install wmi-client packages on my Squeeze/Sid, but i'm
not able to find in the standard repositories (main, contrib &
non-free).
Any tips?
Thanks!

George in a pm , tell me that the package is available in the ubuntu repos:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/python/wmi-client

That works for me.
Thanks!

I just wanted to add that you might want to check to see if they have it in
the jaunty repos as well. Jaunty is closer in release then hardy to
debian/squeeze

But it seems that jaunty version is not available.

I think i will dowload source from winexe home page:
http://eol.ovh.org/winexe/
and compile myself.

I found the intrepid version, still probably not as new of a version as what
squeeze is but it should be better then the hardy one since hardy would be
about the same as etch.

http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/wmi-client

The only other way is to get the source and install that way. I don't think
you will benefit much by having it as a repo anyway since it doesn't seem to
be actively developed or ported.

I also found that it seems they are pulling it from jaunty as well and that
support for what it does will be built in to samba, I don't know when or it
may already be.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wmi/+bug/359637


Just trying to give ya a few ideas, I don't know what it is for or what it
does so I can't recommend a replacement.

"remotely executes commands on WindowsNT/2000/XP/2003 systems from
GNU/Linux" (form winexe homepage).

I'd like to be able to run scripts / win applications / win commands
form a linux machine (like psexec win tool).
(I'm not talking about scripts that i could run using cygwin ssh).

Anyway,

the source compile require a samba recompile.
