Hi all, hope you all had a great holiday and a peaceful New Year.
And I REALLY hope the rest of the year is productive.

Anyhow, in Win XP there is a service called "DcomLaunch" that more or 
less 'Provides Launch functionality for DCOM services'

But in Win2000 there is no such service. How, can I tell that DCOM is up 
and running when launching an application as a service. That is my
Service A is launching Service B, but Service A must know that DCOM is 
up since Service B is using DCOM.

In this case I add a Dependency to Service A (or B) to launch AFTER the 
'DcomLaunch' service is running, but in 2000 I dont know where to start.

Thanks for any help.
