Anyone on the PWS list? The following has worked for me from NT and 2000. >From http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/swiki/10: Advanced Setup If you'd like ComSwiki to startup when you power up your computer, you'll need to follow one of the following recipes: If you're using Windows 95/98 (this can also work for NT, but see the warning/limitations below)... create a shortcut to 'Squeak.exe' in 'C:\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp\' check the properties of the shortcut to make sure that 'Squeak.exe' starts in its directory (e.g., 'C:\Program Files\ComSwiki\') Limitation: this method only works when you're not presented with the logon screen; otherwise, the startup of ComSwiki will be delayed until somebody logs on If you're using Windows NT... you can start ComSwiki from the command line as follows: Squeak.exe -service: ComSwiki squeak.image then use NT's services control panel to configure 'ComSwiki' service -- when it should startup, etc. Sean -- Sean McKay / [EMAIL PROTECTED] Microcomputer Support Specialist George Fox University
