Hi guys, also when you open Windows NT diagnostic, under tab Services you
can find which services are dependant at other. It's in Properties of
service tab Dependancies....

hth
Just BTW - I disabled this service and also Server service, and I-m
pretty
happy without 'em... Honestly I-m not really sure what edvantages could
they offer, bc I didn't find anything about this / there's nothing about
these things. Even Resource Kit is passing by untouching these topics....
>-(
So, if you know any reason why it's worthy to run it, let me know...
TIA

[ and GMRIDER added: ] Server services are used if you want to share any of
your local resources with other computers - (serving services to them...)

Not sure what happens if you don't mount the workstation services, suspect
you can't have other users log into that workstation and use it, probably just
administrator...
