AW: [Bigsister-general] disk and startup problem with big sister win2k clients

["Baum, Stefan" <suppressed>]

Hi Scott,

I had similar problems installing bs as a service under windows. The
Ressource-Kit tools did not really do what I expected them to do. I solverd
this problem using firedeamon (a freeware tool which installs any software
as a service). You can find it here: http://www.firedaemon.com/downloads/.
If you have questions concerning the config of it just ask.

For your disk-problem I don't have any idea by now.

Regards
Stefan
