I am not quite sure what you mean. I have narrowed down the problem though of why my external commands are not working.
I have found that when I am running the server normally as an NT service, ANY time I try to run ANY external command, the external command locks up and does not run. When I start the server in debug mode, the external commands complete just fine. Anyone know why. Maybe a permissions thing or is it something internal to the way the service runs. ---- Jeff Jarchow QCI Internet http://www.qcinet.net/ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Davide Libenzi" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, July 08, 2002 11:37 AM Subject: [xmail] Re: SQL Authentication > > On Mon, 8 Jul 2002, QCI Internet wrote: > > > > > Hi, > > > > I have a rather technical questions.
