how to start up Mercury in SBS2003?

You need to use a service wrapper to run Mercury/32 as a service. I use NT Wrapper to do this since it allows me to run the service as a specific user and still interact with the desktop. The NT Wrapper allows standard Win32 applications or scripts to be run as a Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 Service.

Features:
    ·    Easy configuration thru a GUI and simple INI files.
    ·    Prioritization of sub-processes.
    ·    Custom environments.
    ·    CPU binding
    ·    Redirecting of Stdout/Stderr to file
    ·    Logging to the event log and to disk.
    ·    The capability to run multiple applications in a
         single NT Wrapper service instance.
    ·    Monitoring of a service in the sys-tray.

If the server SBS2003 startsup Mercury does not start up. Only when a user logs in, on the server itself.

Does anyone know -and wants to tell or write me- what I need to do

that Mercury (or any other program that I want) starts up, when the server starts up?

I will be very happy with answer, and will shout it froms the roofs........

pls let me know!!!

and I will grow!!

Wishing You a good day.

You need to be running as a service using one of the service wrappers. I prefer NT Wrapper since it allows me to run with the GUI interface as a specific user.

The NT Wrapper allows standard Win32 applications or scripts to be run as a Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 Service.

Features:
   ·   Easy configuration thru a GUI and simple INI files.
   ·   Prioritization of sub-processes.
   ·   Custom environments.
   ·   CPU binding
   ·   Redirecting of Stdout/Stderr to file
   ·   Logging to the event log and to disk.
   ·   The capability to run multiple applications in a
                   single NT Wrapper service instance.
   ·   Monitoring of a service in the sys-tray.
