Your problem is almost certainly a security issue. 128 can signal that the user launching the child process does not have sufficient rights to the parent process' desktop (or to its specifically assigned desktop, if so coded). > I am running into the problem of not knowing what adddomain.exe is > doing in the background and why it is failing. Don't worry about this. If you're using the Registry, it's just making adds to HKLM\Software--no network access, for example, is necessary. If security is really tight on the Reg, you'd probably be noticing it elsewhere. Try it while running the COM object as a member of Administrators (using the COM+ MMC or DCOMCNFG). If this doesn't suffice, depending on how you're running the COM object, you may have to re-assign the Administrators group the Log on as a Service right, and remove the Deny Logon as a Service right. There may also be other rights that need to be re-assigned. In general, you can find out (and reconfigure) what kind of lockdown your system is under by going to the Local Security Policy MMC. Post your results and we'll see where to go from here. -Sandy Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
