still no luck on getting this going on my win2K server. I did notice
the / for the user name and password. I tried the admin account and
password that is used to log on to the box but no joy. Also tried
the localsystem for the account still no joy. If any one has been
successful in making this play on win2K server please post the steps
to do so.
Thanks
Paul

Given that you have installed
the service ok on an XP box, pick <BR>up the<BR>&gt;
&gt; installed file
structure, normally<BR>&gt; &gt; "C:\Program
Files\xFx\xAP Hub Windows
Service\*"<BR>&gt; &gt; and copy it to the w2k
box<BR>&gt; &gt; <BR>&gt; &gt;
You can then run a manual install using the installutil.<WBR>exe
<BR>program
that<BR>&gt; &gt; was installed as part of .Net 2.0,
normally<BR>&gt; &gt;
"C:\WINDOWS\<WBR>Microsoft.<WBR>NET\Framework\<WBR>v2.0.50727\<WBR>InstallUtil.<WBR>exe"<BR>&gt;
&gt; <BR>&gt; &gt; This gives you the ability to specify,
on the command line,
a <BR>username and password for the service. I think the problem is
that<BR>&gt; &gt; the special account (LocalService) that the
MSI installer
<BR>version tries<BR>&gt; &gt; to install with was new
to XP. <BR>&gt;
<BR>&gt; It definitely is the case that LocalService is not
available on
<BR>win2k.<BR>&gt; <BR>&gt; &gt; You may want
to create<BR>&gt; &gt; a user
account specifically to run the hub service.<BR>&gt; &gt; So
the command to
install would be something like:<BR>&gt; &gt;
"C:\WINDOWS\<WBR>Microsoft.<WBR>NET\Framework\<WBR>v2.0.50727\<WBR>InstallUtil.<WBR>exe"<BR>&gt;
&gt; username=xap password=ping "C:\Program Files\xFx\xAP Hub
Windows<BR>&gt;
&gt; Service\Hub.<WBR>exe"<BR>&gt;
<BR>&gt; A couple of observations: (1)
switches (e.g., username) must be <BR>preceded<BR>&gt; w/ a
forward slash
(e.g., /username) and (2) most importantly, it<BR>&gt; appears
that your
installer ignores these switches. Specifically,
<BR>the<BR>&gt; above (w/

be<BR>&gt;
possible for you to adjust your installer so that it can be
