Thanks!
Your solution is a good one, but doesn't cover my needs. I need a way to get
the packages from a local windows-share.
I want it this way because average windows-owners can't set up servers, but
they can set up a windows share within a 24 hours. Some of them at least
:-). It needs 7* clicks with the mouse and involves right-clicking.
*depends on windows-version
