When it is copied to a Windows 2003 server share, the .pkg is no longer recognized as a single file, rather it shows up as a directory. Two simple solutions are: Build it as a flat package (if the technical restrictions are compatible with your contents & scripts)
or store the .pkg in a .dmg file, which should mount fine off the dmg, and be installable.
If you care about how the presentation to your end users, I highly recommend DMG Canvas by araelium.com
Another solution which might be suggested, storing the pkg in a .zip, is less desireable, as your users will have to remember to copy the zip to their computer before the decompress it.
Hope this helps!
