I'm going slightly mad ;-)
this morning I fetched the prebuilt setup-file and tried on several different 
machines the following:
--- snip ---
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.

D:\fusioninventory-agent_2.1_rc3+devel-20100730-0809.exe /s 
/server=https://myserver.uk-bw.de/fusioninventory /no-ssl-check
--- snap ---

.. but nothing changed to the behaviour mentioned in my previous mail: 
/h does not work
/s does not work
other command-line parameters do not work
only the upper /S initiates a silent setup, but without any other parameters.

The fusioninventory-agent_2.1_rc3+devel-20100730-0908.exe does no better :-((

Is there a way I can do any debuging whats going wrong?

Btw.: all my machines have Microsoft Windows XP Professional Version 2002 with 
Service Pack 3 and current updates. May this be the problem?

I really appreciate your help!

Christoph.
