can you prevent windows from shutting a program down when you logoff

[Dement]

Is there any way to get Windows 2000 to let a certain exe program continue running if you do a simple logoff? Not a reboot. Tring to keep a VPN connection to run a Novell script login.

i really don't know ,But have you tried puting it in the windows startup file. Not the one for the menu. But the other one. Add the exe. There and see if this works. It might. It worth a try! GoodLuck ;)

Basically, you need to run the application as a service. A service starts when Windows starts, not when a user logs in. Also, the service continues to run, until Windows shuts down...or crashes, which ever comes first! :p

You can grab a utility that will run any app as a service here. (http://www.activeplus.com/us/products/smill/default.asp)
