Hi William
I tried this but when I right-click on Terminal Services in the list, the
'Start' option is greyed out (as are Stop, Pause, Resume, Restart). The
options All Tasks, Refresh, Properties, Help are selectable. Under All
Tasks, the five options Start, Stop, Pause, Resume, Restart are greyed out
again.
I think this one is going to be like my Messenger Live spinning buddies -
insoluble!
