We figured out that this happens on win2k. It works on win2003 and I think on XP.

Dennis,

We just tested here and win2k doesn't work I get the same error. Lame!

What is the status of this issue?
I am getting the "Invalid class string" error when I test the zenwin
*svc.py services
on Win2K.

Also, another message in this thread says
This:
zenwinsvc.py install --username .\Administrator --password xyz

Should be:
zenwinsvc.py --username .\Administrator --password xyz install

The readme still contains the first version.

Thanks,
Kent
