Maybe not related, but for DUN I do use TCP/IP, and it is, of course,

enabled.

If the Server service isn't showing in the list it means that File and

Printer Sharing is not installed, none of your connections are bound to it.

You could have saved yourself the trouble of all this typing in

your reply to John John. The command I recommended would

have told you immediately whether the "Server" service is installed,

active or not available. It's these two simple steps:

- Click Start / Run / cmd {OK}

- Type this command:

net stop server{Enter}

Thanks, results:

 

C:\>net stop server

The Server service is not started.

 

In this case "not started" appears to mean not active/not available?

Which explains some of the other results?

It means two things:

a) The "server" services exists.

b) It is not running right now.

 

It also means that the "server" service could be started by

some agent, without you knowing about it. To disable it, do this:

- Click Start / Run / cmd {OK}

- Type this command:

sc config server start= disabled

 

Be careful with the spaces in this command - some of them

are very important!

'sc' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable

Comment?

 

BTW, when in the prevous message I pasted into my reply the text from the

DOS screen, CTRL/C put it into clipboard.

 

This time, CTRL/C did not work. What is a reliable method to copy the

message?

This simply means that sc.exe is not available on your system.

I now realise that it comes with the Windows Resource Kit.

In such cases Google is your friend: In its search box you type

something like

download "sc.exe"

and hey presto! it spits out lots of sites such as this one:

ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/reskit/win2000/sc.zip

Download the file, unzip it, then place it into the c:\WinNT folder.

You can also download a copy from my own site (but only

for a limited time):

http://www.hotlinkfiles.com/files/1214780_qy9dg/sc.exe

Ctrl+C will work if you first mark the text. Your problem was

probably that you could not paste the command into your

Command Prompt. Here is how it's done:

- Start a Command Prompt.

- Press Alt+Space Bar

- Press E, then P

Thanks for the help and that file, it got an answer:

---

C:\>sc config server start= disabled

[sC] OpenService FAILED 1060:

 

The specified service does not exist as an installed service.

----

 

Comment?

 

I am finding that CTRL+C to copy a DOS window screen is sensitive, you

have to highlight not only the text, but extend the highlight to the

right edge of the screen.

 

BTW, I got no answer to my Repost- Popup during Copy/Move post here or on

the very active XP ng. Is the registry key involved really unknown?

We appear to get some contradictory results. You previously

reported this:

net stop server

The Server service is not started

This implies that the "Server" service exists but is not started.

 

Now you report this:

sc config server start= disabled

OpenService FAILED 1060:

The specified service does not exist as an installed service.

This implies that the "Server" service does not exist.

 

We obviously cannot have it both ways. I suspect some

typographical errors or some error in reporting. To resolve

the issue, do this:

1. Download this batch file and store it as c:\ms.bat:

http://www.hotlinkfiles.com/files/1216903_oxyuu/ms.bat

2. Click Start / Run / c:\ms.bat{OK}

3. Copy and paste the contents of the screen into your reply.

Please note that the command sc.exe (which you downloaded

before) MUST be located in c:\Windows or in c:\Windows\System32.

I have been lurking here as I think it is quite illuminating - I also admire

your tenacity. Therefore I have learnt a great deal but I have had to downlaod

the SC.exe and that was instantly wiped out, I think by spywaredetector. I still

have the file sitting in my download folder and I see it is only 4kb - have I

got the wrong file - I am not worried as I have no end of protection. If your

sc.exe is not 4kb, I hsall have to look for another version

My version of sc.exe is 31,323 bytes in size. You can

still get it from here: ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/reskit/win2000/sc.zip

I downloaded it from your site yesterday, it worked fine. But looking at

the above, my file size is 31,232 bytes ??

 

Can you run a checksum on your file and post it, so I can compare?

 

I must have finally run into the MS requirement that you must use IE to

download from MS. I use Firefox, got "page not found", ran my old default

IE, same result.

I had sc in Winnit as you mentioned before, just moved it to System32.

My version of sc.exe is not necessarily exactly the same as the

one on the Microsoft site - it depends on the upgrade level. If this

concerns you, download the MS version. And the MS site I gave

you is most definitely correct!

While my script failed to pick up the various error messages that

were generated by net.exe, it is now obvious that the "server"

service is NOT installed on your machine. You can download

the modified version of ms.bat if you require a final confirmation.

 

I can now say with confidence that file/folder sharing is disabled

on your machine. Since this was your aim all along, we should

be able to put this issue to rest.
