You could write a script to detect network connectivity and then launch PN
Agent once a connection is established thus minimizing login time that could
be quite bothersome with a set time delay.Should be relatively easy to
write..

You may want to explore instead to see if you can have your wireless
connection be established just after (or during) using CTRL ALT DEL to login
to the machine. I've had several cases in the past with roaming laptops that
needed to have the wireless connection be established before the windows
desktop environment loaded, and the only way to do this was to adjust the
wireless client setup. In some cases this required new wireless client
software, and meant setting up a default wireless profile which could be
used by any authorized domain user who logged in. 

 

Another workaround for this might be to remove the call to autolaunch the
PNagent on login, and replace it with a script that has a Pause statement in
it with enough time padded into it so that it will launch the PNagent after
your wireless software has made it's connection.

We have some machines built recently, that are for training.

 

They are configured to run wireless, using a training account, auto-logging
onto the client.

 

Trouble is, the PN Agent fires before the wireless configuration tool.  That
causes the PN Agent to fire and fail, due to the wireless not being
available yet. 

 

Any ideas on how I can delay the launch of the PN Agent.
