Visual Studio 2005, Error using MSBuild and the SourceSafe.Get Task

I'm trying to get the latest version of my project through msbuild project. I have defined a SourceSafe.Get task (from Microsoft.Sdc.Tasks project) to do that. When I try to execute the task I get the following error: "Unable to find the Visual SourceSafe registry key"

I can't find any information about this issue...

This is the task in the .proj file:

<Target Name="Latest">
  <SourceSafe.Get
   UserName="raul"
   Password=""
   Database=""\\amon\dfs\VSS ilitia""
   Project="$\Proyectos\PeopleTracker"
   WorkingDirectory=".\" >
  </SourceSafe.Get>
</Target>

Following, the complete output:
C:\Proyectos\MyProject\build.proj(30,3): error : A task error has occured.
C:\Proyectos\MyProject\build.proj(30,3): error : Message                         = Unable to find the Visual SourceSafe registry key.

I'm getting the same problem too - using reflector you can see that the task is written to look for VSS 6.0 not 2005.

I found a way around this.

Modify the path system enviromnent variable so that c:\program files\microsoft visual sourcesafe is part of the path.

Few other things worth mentioning... Password is ignored, so if the task hangs, its because ss.exe is prompting for a password (and of course you don't have a console..). Make sure the user doesn't have a password to get around this.

The last problem i'm having is that after the get, LoadVersionNumber is called. Why this is even needed is beyond me... but not having the xml file causes the task to bomb. I'm through working aroiund this task, i'm going to find the source and remove the offending lines..
