Sysocmgr.exe would be my guess, although it might be as simple as netsh.

It was a left over idea from our old 98 days when it was easier to lock the students down by not installing the service. We would like to turn it on in XP for a variety of reasons, and just control file sharing access via gpo's for them. I found an old JSInc Faq that addresses this with snetcfg and was able to get the exe down before WindowsITPro borged them. Simple exe with command line switches that grabs the inf from the inf directory and installs the service. However I am having zero luck getting the exe to work, it keeps failing with an error. Below is the syntax I am running if anyone has used it. snetcfg -v -l c:\windows\inf\netsrv.inf -c s -i MS_Server Or does anyone have another idea how to do this without visiting 2500 machines? ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
