Getting info from a service running on anather computer- HOW?

Bob
Two part question:
1- I'm in the process of creating a service app with VB.net VS2005 -
MyService.
I have a get and set property that can return values if I can access it. -
MyProperty
Question is from another application, on another machine how can I get and
set Myproperty on the service while its running?

2- The service does not have a UI, but sometimes it will be necessary for me
to modify some of its configuration settings while its running. Can anyone
point me to sample code that lets you do that.

Thanks for any help.

Hi We are trying to debug a problem with services created using py2exe. It seems that these problems have arisen after services were installed and removed a few times. OK, first the actual problem we're seeing. After compiling a service with py2exe, running "service -install" and attempting to start it from the Services dialog, it pops up the message "Windows could not start the Service on Local Computer.

Hello All! I am writing a management application, which has to access remote machines registry via System.Diagnostics.EventLog.CreateEventSource . For each machine, I connect to, I create a DirectoryEntry and connect to that machine specifying credentials. That's becauase the running user does not has the right permissions . The application is written in C# and the action taken is done with threads from the threadpool.

I am writing a Windows service in VB.NET... I am using two applicatons - the actual service, and then an additional 'control app' (Windows Forms) that can be used to stop, start, monitor, etc the service. Using the ServiceController class, I see that it is easy to get a limited amount of information INTO a service (such as using Custom Commands). Now let's reverse that - How does one get information OUT of a Windows service? For...

To all, Running into an out of memory error on our data warehouse server. This occurs only with our data from the 'September' section of a large fact table. The exact same query running over data from August or any prior month for that matter works fine which is why this is so weird. Note that June 2004 through today is stored in the same f_pageviews table. Nothing has changed on the server in the last couple of months. I upgraded...

My log eventlog message saying the the DB was updated successfully is written, however the...

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.

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
