SOB-multiple processes?

Hello all,

While i am still working on this heat, real/imaginary? problem w/ my P4 2.8ghz processor i just wanted to try and iron out some SOB issues.

I turned off *auto-start upon windows boot*, closed the client.
renamed sobsvc to sobsvc -i...ran that using the *run* command
ran sobsvc- o
ran sobsvc -o2

Rebooted and tada...nothing. What did i do wrong? do i just have to run one of those commands to get 2 instances of SOB running or do i ahve to reboot after every modification, or what, thanks guys!
 
i don't think it works that way

you need to open the command prompt and navigate to your SB folder, then type in sobsvc -i etc. inside the command prompt
 
You can't stack the flags. The sobsvc executable (the default one, not your aliased one) needs to run once for each flag you want to set.

For example, where one would think that
> sobsvc -i -o -m
would set three flags, but it won't work. You need to run
> sobsvc -i
> sobsvc -o
> sobsvc -m
to set those three flags.

 
Just a thought... remember that at default settings (without the -k flag) the service runs invisibly. You are checking in your task list, right? 😛

And you don't need to rename anything. I'd go back to the default names (sobsvc) and start again from scratch, running 'sobsvc -i' from your SB directory and then repeating with each flag you need.

Good luck!
 
Ok, then I misunderstood what you did. I took "renamed sobsvc to sobsvc -i" to mean that you 'aliased' the executable so that whenever you run sobsvc, you're really running sobsvc -i.

If what Allio3 said doesn't help, then what O/S are you running this on?
