If you use it as a service verify the following points: – do not allow interaction with the desktop – run it using a true account with the appropriate rights (something like ‘Administrator’). Do not use the default ‘LocalSystem’ account. This is necessary to be able to access files out of the NT box (and this is not our conditions but Microsoft’s…) See the following articles for more information. Local System Account and Null Sessions in Windows NT (Q132679) http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q127/8/62.asp http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q124/1/84.asp http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q158/5/08.asp When used as a service you can start and stop it using a standard start and stop commands of Windows NT. These commands can be included in the standard Windows NT scheduler : AT or WINAT if you have the NT Resource Kit . Configure MacNames in Configuration + Install/Remove MacNames Service.
