RE: Re: run as a service

["Brian G. Reynolds" <brian.g.reynolds@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Keith,

I have now got a right mess of a system...

The "Allow Service to interact with desktop" did seem to work but
HV did not open the last used schedule then when I re-booted it did not run
at all.....

Also when I Terminal Serviced TS into the server via the iPaq it now tries
to open all the programs in the start menu instead of just ACE Client as it
did before...

I have now given up on this idea by using Services and have deleted all the
entries but now when I boot the server ACE clients does not connect to ACE
server until I close all the programs manually and re-start them....very
strange.

My Fuji in the kitchen still connects to TS and opens ACE Client, but I am
unable to get the TS on the iPaq to only connect to ACE Client, not sure if
I can delete the client and start again....

Going for a cuppa and try again.....

Look at the properties of the service under "Log On"

There is a checkbox marked "Allow Service to interact with
desktop"

The help says "Specifies whether the service provides a user interface
on a
desktop that can be used by whoever is logged on when the service is
started. This option is available only if the service is running as a
LocalSystem account (as specified by This Account)"

Might be the answer.
