Hi,
It's not quite all that simple.  We have a service that wakes up every
minute and scans a number of sub keys and values under our main key, looking
for things to do.  Every now and then, though not very often, it can't find
the sub keys.

If I try to open/rename/delete one of these sub keys using RegEdit, I get
"Access denied".  It seems that either stopping and restarting the service
or rebooting the server clears the problem.

There's no discernable pattern.  Everything ran fine for a month or so and
then yesterday, two servers had the problem.  Using BCB5 and TRegistry
objects if that's any help.  Also, the service was running under a user
account on one machine and LocalSystem on the other.

Even thin hints would be appreciated.  Don't suggest switching to Linux ;-)

- Arnie
