Ok. Service running using local system account can be allowed to interact with desktop, right? But if service is set to use some other specified account will it be able to interact with desktop?
Also a little off - can I set an application to be running in other then current user account?
We are talking 2000, XP (and possibly NT).

Start Your Windows Programs From An NT Service

Make your MFC, VB and other Windows programs behave like NT services.

Hope that helps.

Only services running in the LocalSystem context and marked interact can create desktop windows.
Don't do it. Instead, write a remote administration API (you could use DCOM, RPC, sockets, named pipes, ...) and an administration GUI which talks to the service using that interface.
If you only want to show message boxes, you can pass the MB_SERVICE_NOTIFICATION flag to MessageBox, regardless of which account the service is running under.
Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

Hi, I have a problem while choosing a license when installing windows 2000. I still don't understand between Per seat vs. Per server license mode. Whether I have read Microsoft document but I still don't understand. Does anybody give me an idea about the difference between these two license mode? If you have an example than it would be greater.

Installing with per Server licensing makes sense for small networks; each client connecting to the server uses one license. Per Seat licensing grants the license to the client, so that the client can connect to any server in a large network.
In other terms, Per Server licensing attaches the license to the server. If you have 5 licenses, 5 clients can be connected to the server at a time, and it doesn't matter which clients they are. If you use Per Seat licensing, the license is granted to the client, allowing that client to connect to any server. This makes sense in a large network with many servers.

If you want to run ASP.NET web application, you need to have IIS install property in your computer. In windows NT4, you also need IIS too. To install IIS you need to install windows NT option pack and install visual studio.net. I'm not sure that windows NT option pack could be download from an internet or not. But according to my experience, i installed windows NT option pack from the CDROM at my work place.

No DNS Name Resolution If DHCP Client Service Is Not Running
View products that this article applies to.
This article was previously published under Q268674
SYMPTOMS
When you try to resolve a host name using Domain Name Service (DNS), the attempt is unsuccessful. Communication by Internet Protocol (IP) address (even to the DNS server) and the Nslookup utility against the DNS server both work correctly.
CAUSE
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Client Service may not be running.

XP home or Pro
Hide (and reveal) the Recycle Bin and any desktop shortcuts you add by right clicking the desktop, pointing to Arrange Icons By, and then clicking Show Desktop Icons.
Recycle Bin Does Not Appear on the Desktop see:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=810869
Win 95,98,ME
Create a shortcut of the recycle bin to the desktop. Then you don't have to edit the registry.
Click My Computer. On the Tools menu, click View > Folder Options > View tab, and then click to clear the Hide protected operating system files check box. Click Yes when the warning message appears.
In the C drive, locate the Recycle Bin folder, and then drag the Recycle Bin folder to the desktop.
If this happend right after a new/upgrade install of w2k or xp on an old computer, the bios is noncompliant.

Hi, I wonder between MSDOS in windows 98 and windows NT. For example I have folder name "Character" in the root drive C:\ (both windows 98 and NT).
In windows 98, i open MSDOS and stand on C:\ drive, when I need to change my position to "Character" folder, I have to type "cd charac~1" and press ENTER then it will change to "Character" folder. But in windows NT if i want to do that I have to type the full folder name "cd character". Can anyone give me an idea about this issue? Why MSDOS in win98 and winNT is difference?

All of the Win9x series operating systems were shells running on top of MSDOS; WinNT was a true 32-bit OS. MSDOS had a limitation in file/folder names that limited users to eight characters plus a 3 character extension. WinNT did away with that limitation. While the Windows environment in all versions since Win95 could handle long file/folder names, the Win9x versions shipped with MSDOS as the command line processor, and command.com doesn't support these longer names. Each file/folder in a Win9x system has an alias comprised of the first 6 characters, plus ~, plus a digit to resolve duplicates, for use with command line functions. WinNT did away with that requirement.

I have a problem with with the newtwork in my office. There is a workgroup in my office with 25 computer. Everything working fine (share file, internet, e-mail). After my organization upgrade the internet and change some connectivity at hub (near the machine that share internet). I can use e-mail and internet, but I could not see the other people (computer name) in my network place (under entire network and workgroup name). The other people could not see my computer in the network too. Does anybody have idea or suggestion about this problem?

How are your computers configured? What is the new Internet connection? At a minimum, all computers on your peer-to-peer network must have IP addresses in the same subnet, and all must belong to the same workgroup. If you use static addressing, check to see that your PC is configured the same as the rest, ie the same subnet and workgroup, and no duplicate addresses or host names. If you use dynamic addressing (DHCP) make sure that all are configured to obtain addressing information automatically. Usually you want to configure your Internet router/modem to act as a DHCP server and disable any other DHCP servers on the network - there can be only one. You mentioned some reconfiguration near the server - if they replaced a hub with a switch, it can take some time for the switch to fill its routing table. This should not take more than a few minutes, though.
BTW, if you have 25 computers on a peer-to-peer network, you're exceeding the recommended maximum by quite a chunk. Installing a real server and switching to a domain architecture may seem expensive, but it will save you money in the long run.
