Sadly, I still don't see that as the problem.  The external check doesn't use any specific account within the check itself.  The NT server is logged into the Novell tree via the client so that if the rights were not correct, I wouldn't be able to get a value back with the ExternalErrorLevel progra

Yes.  I've just double checked it.  It was working from the ExternalErrorLevel program using that UNC.  I suspect that now I'm running into rights problems for access to outside resources.  When it wasn't working even as an application, I couldn't see it.  I now have it working as an application

John,  I've already tried that with no change. I was using the UNC path to the Novell server.  I've now mapped a drive to that system and am using the drive mapping to check the number of files.  It seems to be working as an application but not as a service.  I now can agree that there might be a

Is the service running under the same account that you’re logged in with?  Meaning, if you’re logged in with your personal account, is the service using that same account?  If it’s not, stop the service, change it to your account, and then start the service again, and see if it works.  If i

The checkerrorlevel application is running under the context of the logged on user, being you I suppose?   Servers Alive is running as service you said and thus using the rights of the user defined for that service.     Don't forget to vote for Servers Alive in the annual Sunbelt Target Awar

I can't see how this could be a rights problem.  I have no particular security settings in the check, I'm logged into Novell via the 4.80 client through an account that we've been using for quite some time without any changes.  I am one of three people who could have possibly changed any of the ri

We monitor the ServersAlive service (for arguments sake "SA1") from another PC that also runs ServersAlive ("SA2").   Since these are all NT, if the "Is SA1 alive?" check fails, SA2 tries to restart the service. After 3 consecutive "downs" we get paged, and after each check a web page is u
