I have been using the following code for a long time to retrieve service information from WinNT 4 server SP6a, Windows2000 (most service packs) and Windows 2003 :
ServiceController[] AvailableServices;
AvailableServices = ServiceController.GetServices("ServerName");
We have recently just installed SP1 for Windows 2003 on a number of servers and now I get an acces denied/permissions error come back when running the code
I have tried most combinations of putting the the network account running the application with the code in to the built in local groups on the remote server and the only combination that works is if i add the network account to the local admin group.
Does anyone know if there is a way to allow this to work with out the need for having the network account in the local admin group (we dont really want this on all our servers)
Thanks for any help

Hi,
Thank you very much for your reply (and code)
It sounds like the only way is to access as a local admin, but we do not want to do this by any method, we are monitoring service status on 80+ servers (not all windows 2003 sp1) and do not want 1 (or any application) knowing local admin password to any of the servers let alone all of our servers
Maybe creating a service that runs as system on each of the servers, so that the application asks the service on each server for the status of the required services on that server and the service then queries the services. Did not really want to install any compenent on the servers though.
Do you know if running as system would be able to access service information?
Thanks for your help

Yes, that is actually the preferred method.

ok, thank you, i will think about writing a client service for those servers

hi all,
i want user to define table names but i dont know how to use textbox.texts in queries ???
for example :
this: c = new OleDbCommand("Create Table textbox1.Text ( name char(10), surname char(10), age integer , phone char(12), email char(20))",s);
or this : c = new OleDbCommand("Create Table {0} ( name char(10), surname char(10), age integer , phone char(12), email char(20))",s,textbox1.Text);
gives error 
how can i use textbox1.Text as my table name ?
and secondly :
c = new OleDbCommand("insert into {0} values({1},{2},{3},{4},{5})", s, textBox1.Text, textBox2.Text, textBox3.Text, textBox4.Text, textBox5.Text, textBox6.Text);
how should i change the line above ?
thanks in advance ...

You could do this:
c = new OleDbCommand("Create Table " + textbox1.Text + " (name char(10), surname char(10), age integer, phone char(12), email char(20))",s);
or this:
c = new OleDbCommand("Create Table ? (name char(10),surname char(10), age integer, phone char(12), email char(20))",s);
c.Parameters.Add("table",textbox1.Text);

HTTP has been In use by the WWW global Information Initiative since 1990 and nowadays It Is one of the most widely used protocols on the Internet
HTTP application have historically allowed three different formats for the representation of date/time stamps (described In RFC 2616)
1. RFC 1123 format, for example
Sun, 06 Nov 2005 08:49:37 GMT
2. RFC 1036 format, for example
Sunday, 06-Nov-05 08:49:37 GMT
3. ANSI C's asctime() format, for example
Sun Nov 6 08:49:37 2005
An Implementation Is not HTTP 1.1 compliant If It fails to understand one of the above date/time formats
Question 1
You are require to write an HTTP 1.1 compliant program to parse a string containing one of the above date/time formats. The program must detect the date/time format automatically based on the Input string and store the result In the following object
Class MyDate
{
public Int day; /*1 to 31*/
public Int month; /*1 to 12*/
public Int year; /*1970 to 9999*/
public Int hour; /*0 to 23*/
public Int minute; /*0 to 59*/
public Int second; /*0 to 59*/
public Int dayofweek; /* 0= Sun, 1=Mon,etc* /
}
Question 2
Develop a program to display the system date/time In the RFC 1123 format(as show In example)
=====================================================
I have no idea to do this exercise, please help me.
Thanks alot.
Good luck.

I known what you mean but...
I haven't found any ways to do this exercise, i am begener and live in the country that IT is weak. My experience in C# is not really good.
If you have time, plz help me.
thankssssssss alot

Have you actually tried? If so what have you tried. It looks like you want somebody to do the whole thing for you!

This is no excuse for not doing your homework!
rockxuyenmandem wrote: My experience in C# is not really good.
Hence why you are given homework, so that you can learn. If you are totally stuck on where to start can I sugggest you either a) Attend your classes and/or b) Seek advice from your tutor.

More than willing to help, but I wont do your homework as already stated.

Voted 1 because:
a) we don't do your homework for you
b) you've posted this before
c) the problem is really neither interesting or all that advanced
If you're really stuck start with the MSDN documentation for the string class. You might also find the Regex class and the DateTime class useful.
Show that you are actually making an effort and somebody can problem help you with specific problems.

I would have to say that the most interesting aspect to this post is that you are a 3rd year computer student and yet you do not know how to parse a string. By my third year I was writing compilers and operating systems. I highly recommend you consider a new career path. We definitely don't need more developers like you around. You got a 1 vote from me.

Put them in the app settings part of the file.
|
|
|
|

I already have attributes in the app settings part of the file. For these particular att. I need to extract their values and put them into an array.
The number of attributes is not static so I cannot place them in an array using their keys.
Is there any other way???.

try this,
ArrayList array = new ArrayList();
XmlNode node = doc.SelectSingleNode("*/langauges");
foreach (XmlNode n in node.Nodes)
{
array.Add(n.InnerText);
}
Good luck!
