Windows Service Problem

NTDEV
1

Hello,

I have a problem on Windows Service in 2K. Please help me out.

I am creating a service, with " SERVICE_WIN32_OWN_PROCESS |
SERVICE_INTERACTIVE_PROCESS" as the service type and i want this service to
run in my local system account(so that i can give some information based on
the login acccount) so i also pass “.\login” and “password”. But the
CreateService() fails returning “Incorrect Parameter”. Now, if I do the
same process just by not using “SERVICE_INTERACTIVE_PROCESS” in the
CreateService(), with user account information the API succeeds and the
service starts running,(the Service Window show the account information)
but i donot get the UI, in whihc i want to give inputs.

Please give me any information or piece of code by which both the options
of “SERVICE_INTERACTIVE_PROCESS” and “Running in a System Account” can be
done. I would be really grateful to you for any information.

thanks in advance and regards,
Venkat.

IIRC this is impossible at all.
