The permissions for serial ports are tied to permissions on registry key entries in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\SERIALCOMM By default, XP seems to give Full Control to Local System, and by default Slimserver's Windows service seems to run as Local System, so there shouldn't be any permissions problems with the com port. -- peterw http://www.tux.org/~peterw/ free plugins: http://www.tux.org/~peterw/#slim BlankSaver BottleRocket FuzzyTime SaverSwitcher SleepFade StatusFirst VolumeLock ------------------------------------------------------------------------ peterw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2107 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35853 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
