Re: [Wrapper-user] Network File Access Problem

[Leif M. <le...@ta...>]

Patrick,
    Sal's comment was correct.  But the recommended way of configuring 
an account is
to make use of the wrapper.ntservice.account and wrapper.ntservice.password
properties.  This way the account settings will survive the service 
being reinstalled.

Thanks Sal,
Cheers,
Leif
