Did you run Regmon and see if there is a problem writing to the registry? or auditing that CSLID ID and seeing if the permissions have been tweaked too much.

Recently however all my thin client users on only one of my terminal servers are experiencing errors like the following: Unable to start a DCOM Server: {0C0A3666-30C9-11D0-8F20-00805F2CD064} as /. The error: "The system cannot find the file specified. " Happened while starting this command: C:\WINNT\System32\MDM.EXE -Embedding I have considered long file names vs.8.3 filenames to no avail. Also made some attempts at DCOMCNFG with no success. That leaves me once again to look to you guys for some insight as I have reached the end of my rope on this one. Any ideas are greatly appreciated. g GE Industrial Systems CPQP ____________________________________________________________________________ ________ Robert Sanders IT / Programmer/Systems Support 381 Broadway, Ft.
