By the way, if i change PATH_thisScript to 
c:/Programme/typo3/htdocs/typo3wamp/winremote/index.php (where my script 
is) i get the following error. So i ask myself, whether this should be 
the path to typo3 or my script..

Error in init.php: Path to TYPO3 main dir could not be resolved correctly.

This happens if the last 6 characters of this path, , (\$temp_path) is 
NOT "typo3/" for some reason.
You may have a strange server configuration. Or maybe you didn't set 
constant TYPO3_MOD_PATH in your module?
If you expect any help from anybody on this issue, you should save this 
page as an html document and send it along with your request for help!
