Under windows 2000, the windows directory is called "WINNT" not
"WINDOWS".


According to the log, ECS issues the command:

"windows\system32\cmd /c "TASKLIST" proc pid.tmp 2> NUL"

Under W2K Server, this directory does not exist. The command would have
to be:

"winnt\system32\cmd /c "TASKLIST" proc pid.tmp 2> NUL"

But that doesn't work in the more common case of a system directory of
WINDOWS.

So I created a dummy c:\windows\system32 to hold the CMD command. I put
tasklist in there as well. May not be needed, as tasklist is in the
path.

I don't understand why you have to explicitly call out the windows
system directory. It should be in  the path by default. There again,
this may be the fix for an earlier problem.


Should probably check with Rob to see if his winnt\system32 directory
has the tasklist command in it - mine does, but I put it there on the
last go around with this one.

Hi Martin,
So why the need for these other steps ?
