nt service

[mehta]

Hello,

in controlpanel/services in winnt how do I know what details of service (which exe it points etc) so that later if due to reinstall of os I loose that info I could avoid reinstalling apps on other partition and just add those services? can one guide if my problem is clear enough?

I'm not sure I follow you. Most of the services in NT are installed by default or by using a Control Panel "icon". The other services would be added by 3rd party programs so you would just need to reinstall the program or readd the service to recover from a "crashed" system. NT would take care of the details for you. Most of the default services are started using the services.exe program and the "real" service program(s) is one or more DLLs.


It would take more than just copying a DLL or changing a "pointer" to reinstall a service.


Hope this helps http://www.PCGuide.com/ubb/smile.gif
