I don't believe that is configurable outside of the service code for each individual service as it isn't a normal timeout.
Basically, as I understand it, what happens is when a service starts, it is supposed to set its status to SERVICE_START_PENDING and set a wait hint in milliseconds of how long it should take. If the startup is taking too long, it is up to the service to submit an updated value for the wait hint. If the wait hint expires, the SCM is supposed to assume that the service process has errored out in its initialization. joe -- O'Reilly Active Directory Third Edition - http://www.joeware.net/win/ad3e.htm -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 27, 2006 1:54 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Service time-out Thanks for the reply, Joe.
