Hello, I am trying to start a service: - Server Service General: C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe -k netsvcs Log On: Local System Account This service has no dependency. I am getting an access denied... I am a Local Administrator on this server. Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition Service Pack 2 PAE Enabled. Which other place should I verify?

That doesn't sound correct about dependencies. The server service typically gets started when you bind File and Printer Sharing to the network connection. Regards, Dave Patrick ....

Hello Dave, Nothing like this for me on any of the server having trouble so far . Any other idea? Thanks, Dom System Center Operations Manager 2007 / System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2 / Forefront Client Security / Forefront Identity Manager

Yes it is ... System Center Operations Manager 2007 / System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2 / Forefront Client Security / Forefront Identity Manager

My bad I was looking on 2008 R2 server service properties. I'd check the system event log for errors since last boot. Regards, Dave Patrick ....

No problem... so reset and see if you have idea about the Server Service stopping unexpectively and refusing to start... except through a reboot System Center Operations Manager 2007 / System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2 / Forefront Client Security / Forefront Identity Manager

Sorry, didn't understand this. Is this a new setup or has this been running? What was recently changed with server? Also check system event log. Regards, Dave Patrick ....

I would check that KB; http://support.microsoft.com/kb/932762 "Could not start the Server service on Local Computer. Error 5: Access is denied. " Description of the error from that KB: The problem is most likely to occur if some third-party server becomes the master browser. When a Windows-based server is the master browser, it does not let any host that is advertising its share to use a server comment that is larger than 48 bytes. When a third-party server message block (SMB) server becomes the master browser, it lets a host use a server comment that is larger than 48 bytes. In this case, when a Windows Server receives and tries to process the browser list, the Server service crashes. This behavior occurs because there is an overflow that eventually leads to a heap corruption. MCP | MCTS 70-236: Exchange Server 2007, Configuring
