I would like some verification from someone at MS if it's at all
possible. What are the rules on using/including ipseccmd.exe - which is
not part of XPe - can we have this file in our image, use it for setup
and remove it before distribution, or not use it at all?
 
now that we have the firewall, I have succeded to avoid
ipsec policy.

in the old time of XPe SP1, where I did not have the firewall,
I used and XP pro to graphically create the ip sec policy and
thanks to inCtrl5, captured the registry and re-injected to
XPe. -> I did not use ipseccmd, too complicated to ask
our patent department to use bits not included in the contract

I don't know what are you trying to do which can not be done
with the firewall?

The meeting with the network bods hasn't taken place yet, and I've not
had the time to read what exactly they want to do, but they've been
merrily documenting how it's going to be done with ipseccmd, and I've
had to step in to say no...
 
Hi Heidi, yes you are allowed to use support tools in your runtime that
are normally downloaded for free such as the Resource Kits and the
Windows XP Advanced Tools. However you're not allowed to market that
tool and not allowed to profit specifically from that tool, you can also
redistribute them in support of your image but not as one of the primary
*features* of the device.

If in doubt, the usual disclaimer of "if you have to ask you should
probably check the license and consult with your distributor" also applies.

Take care.

Thanks Andy, I personally don't have access to the distributor - it all
goes through someone much higher up the chain than us lowly devs. I've
passed your information on to him, and now I'll be able to get on with
providing my manager with the extra functionality he requires. I thought
it best to get the situation clarified, as I remember when I was first
starting out creating a component that did some stuff on first boot then
deleted with tool it had done it with because we weren't supposed to
distribute it.
