serivces set to "Automatic" not starting

June 10, 2008

hello,

i am not a Windows admin, but i am trying to do some general research.

one of our win 2003 servers has some in-house services running on it.

they are set to start as "Automatic". however, sometimes on reboot

they dont start.

what sort of things could prevent a service from starting?

thanks,

sm
