Re: [WinPcap-users] Using WinPCap in an NTService

[Gianluca Varenni]

Hi.   What do you mean by "packet and wpcap dlls are not loaded"?? Those dlls can be unloaded, even if the driver is loaded (and viceversa). An application loads them to access the interface exported by the driver (that can be started or not).   Have a nice day GV   ----- Original Message ----- From: Cary Moore To: winpcap-users@winpcap.polito.it Sent: Thursday, January 06, 2005 1:03 PM Subject: [WinPcap-users] Using WinPCap in an NTService Is it possible to use WinPCap in an NTService application loaded when the system boots (WinXP SP2) ?   I've written a service (Delphi 2005) that works fine when started manually from the Service Control Manager but fails to start automatically when the system boots (7009 timeout error generated in the Event Log).   I've set the NPF driver to load automatically and according to msinfo32 it is running but neither the packet or wpcap dlls are loaded until I manually start the service.   Any help, advice, pointers would be appreciated.   Cary.
