"Service" essentially means software that runs in the background and is accessible to users on the computer or elsewhere on the network, even if no one is logged on to the computer running the service.
UNC is Universal Naming Convention (or University of North Carolina...), and is a way of referring to the shared space on a network drive as \\servername\sharename, where "servername" is the network name for the computer and "sharename" is the shorthand for the folder or group of folders that are shared on the network. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97540 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
