Hi,

I can confirm the problem here too. My actual workaround is:

First doing a "dry-run" with winexe 1.0 (--version String is 4.0.0alpha11), calling ping or something similar which will nothing do on windows machine. This will fail on Windows Server 2012r2 but installs the winexe service in winxp.

After that I call winexe 1.11 which can communicate with the previously installed winexe service (1.00) on the windows xp host; and can install the newer winexe service (1.11) on Windows Server 2012r2.

I noticed, that an --uninstall option for the winxp hosts will only work with the winexe1.00 and not with the winexe1.11. Also a --reinstall option fails for winxp with winexe1.11. If you want --uninstall I guess you have to do the workaround otherwise by calling both winexe-versions once more again with a dummy command on windows-side.
