I wrote a program for rebooting a windows server 2000 machine. It had to do
some other things first - shut down three services, delete all files from a
specific folder - but then its to reboot.

It works just great on my windows xp laptop. Not a problem.

The windows 2k server, here at work.... hehe....

It wont come back on.

:(

The code is posted below. Any ideas where I screwed up - or if this is just
maybe a coincidence?

Thanks!


[code]
DllExport bool ShutDownWindows()
{
        HANDLE hToken;
        TOKEN_PRIVILEGES MyToken;
        if (!OpenProcessToken(GetCurrentProcess(), TOKEN_ADJUST_PRIVILEGES |
TOKEN_QUERY, &hToken))
                return false;
        LookupPrivilegeValue(NULL, SE_SHUTDOWN_NAME,
&MyToken.Privileges[0].Luid);
        MyToken.PrivilegeCount = 1;
        MyToken.Privileges[0].Attributes = SE_PRIVILEGE_ENABLED;
        AdjustTokenPrivileges(hToken, false, &MyToken, 0,
(PTOKEN_PRIVILEGES)NULL, 0);
        return (ExitWindowsEx(EWX_REBOOT | EWX_FORCE, 0));
}
