Does this situation really lack a solution 
?
When I put the egg extracted by hydruid into /home/zenoss and then run (as zenoss user) command zenpack --install ZenPacks.zenoss.WindowsMonitor-1.0.5-py2.7.egg, I´ll get this:
[zenoss@zenos_upgrade ~]$ zenpack --install ZenPacks.zenoss.WindowsMonitor-1.0.5 -py2.7.egg

Am I being asked to create that context path /zport/dmd/Devices/Server/Windows ? If yes, where?
