Trying to restart a Windows 2003 server system

[JSha]

Hello,
I am using the following code to restart a Windows 2003 server system locally

1) I am setting the appropriate priviledge for the process by calling the SetCurrentProcessPrivileges with SE_PRIVILEGE_ENABLED flag.

2) Doing a shutdown by,
::InitiateSystemShutdown(
(LPTSTR) NULL, // pointer to name of computer to shut down
(LPTSTR) NULL, // pointer to message to display in
(DWORD) 0, // time to display dialog box
(BOOL) TRUE, // force applications closed flag
(BOOL) TRUE // reboot flag
);

However the system does not restart...is there a restriction to use InitiateSystemShutdown locally on a Windows 2003 system?This code was working on a windows 2000 system, so it makes me think that Windows 2003 might have something to do with it...


Any help will be appreciated..

Thanks!
JSha

However the system does not restart...

You mean that it does not shut down or that it shuts down but does not restart?

What error codes a re you getting from the function calls?
