Oh, Ok.  There are a variety or ways that you can do it.  The built in
way does use RPC, so I see why you're asking, but there are a variety of
ways to distribute it.  The reason that I included the use of RPC to
distribute it is the typical scenario of the traveling support
technician.  

In this scenario, I am on the local LAN when I'm installing the clients,
but when I need to remotely do things, I'm not on the LAN.  The RPC will
work for deployment because I'm on the LAN while I'm doing it but when
I'm actually sending the scripts and commands, I'm out on the road
somewhere or at another site.  This is where the value of having the
encrypted single port is evident.  

If you're NEVER on the local LAN, then, as you point out, the RPC will
not be available to you (hopefully) so you'll have to use other ways to
put the service on the remote computers. One way would be to put the
four needed files: svc_vncscan.exe, unolibs.net.dll, xmlsettings.dll,
and vncscan.key (your key file) onto an FTP server and VNC into the
remote computer, then download them to the workstation or server.  Once
they are downloaded, you can install them using the command line:
%SystemRoot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\installutil.exe
c:\path\to\svc_vncscan.exe.  I've included a script to do so in the help
file, too.

Basically, you can use email, ftp, www, whatever to get the files on the
computer and once they're there, just run that command and the service
will be installed.

This is the bit I'm really querying.  How do you "push the service out"
to a machine that has it's RPC (file sharing, service control manager,
registry) disabled?
