Hi all,

We want to change all our clients (Win2k SP4) so that when a a service fails
(our choice here is the spooler service) that:

1st fail - restarts service
2nd fail - restarts service
3rd fail - run program (batch file that sends a net send to the domain
admins to say that the service has failed for a third time)

What is the best way of making this change on ALL our clients? Can we make
an MSI package using WinstallLE? Our is their a reg hack that can be canged
by using a startup script? Or is the a WSH script that can do this?

All help appreciated

I would export the Spooler service key,
configure that client, export the Spooler service key,
and set up a reg file with the changes.

Use a logon script.
