Registry-setting to start RC5?

[KifArU]

I´m trying to install RC5 as a service on NT4, sp5. dnetc-install doesn´t work. But I can use regedit. What settings do I put in the registry to start the client and keep it running when the user logs out? (Perhaps somebody has a .reg?)

Thijs

If -install doesn't work, you have bigger problems.🙁 Oh, and I think the location is local machine\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run\

Actually its HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices
where you have a string called distributed.net client with value
"C:\Program Files\RC5\DNETC.exe" -hide

However this applies to win9x only.

On NT4 server SP5 where I used the -install switch, I have the following entries :

Check to see if you have the dnetc.com in the distributed.net directory. I've had problems with Windows using the .EXE version if the .COM is there too. If you do, then use the

dnetc.exe -install

there is a space between the dnetc.exe and the -

also make sure you are in the distributed.net directory when you issue the command.

Don't forget to start the service once installed.

Also check in services manager that the service is set to autostart, not manual.
