Off-topic question: have you found any way to debug winexe problems?
I use it for some other automation running from CentOS5 and CentOS6
hosts and find that it sometimes fails with a 'failed to install
service' error on the windows target but often running the same
command from the other system will work.  The winexe programs might be
slightly different versions or have different compile options too but
I don't know where to start to debug it.   I'd like to run everything
from the CentOS6 box but it seems to fail more frequently.
