install: account name is invalid or does not exist...

Hi,
We've built a .NET service. It installed just fine on the SBS 2003 machine
at home. Trying to install it on a Windows 2000 box at work, and am getting
the following error:

"The account name is invalid or does not exist, or the password is invalid
for the account name specified."

I have tried to install this as an enterprise admin and as the local admin,
and also trying to use the 'installutil.ex e' program as well as the setup
program generated by .net. Always get the same error. Any help greatly
appreciated, thanks,
Dave

I am running a Windows 2003 Server w/Framework 1.1 loaded. We have built a ..NET 2003 app and it requires that ASPNET be assigned permissions to several folders and servcies. The ASPNET account does not exist on the server (viewed through Active Directory). The accounts IUSR_WIN2K3SRVR and IWAM_WIN2K3SRVR do exist. I thought that the Framework installation would automatically create the ASPNET account - it does appear on other...

I am trying to install PostgreSQL on OS X 10.3, using the package from Entropy.ch. The installation instructions there, as well as anywhere else I have seen them on the net, say to create a user (using the System Preferences pane) with a shortname "postgres". The problem is, this user already exists in my netinfo database/domain, and so I cannot either create a new user with the same short name, or use this user, because I do not know...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
