EveryoneAll EveryoneAll Fresh Scripter Registered: 2002-11-23 Posts: 16 Loc: Singapore	Hi, Extract from Microsoft KnowledgeBase Article 163723: "Although the KiXtart documentation does not mention it, Msvcrt.dll is required for KiXtart to run" Appreciate your advise if it's true that the file MSVCRT.DLL is required in the netlogon directory? Thks.

Guessing it was a fix for something at the time. _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more. Slap him with a fish and he will go away forever.

Shawn Shawn Administrator Registered: 1999-08-13 Posts: 8611	Well, although you didn't mention it, can I assume your running 9x here ? All these standard DLL's should be pathed-up and located in system32 - else something stinketh ! Is this just one of your machines, or all of them ? [ 10.

I think there's a newer version out now. _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more. Slap him with a fish and he will go away forever.

What version of MSNet32.dll? _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more. Slap him with a fish and he will go away forever.

EveryoneAll EveryoneAll Fresh Scripter Registered: 2002-11-23 Posts: 16 Loc: Singapore	I've got both Win95, 98, 2K and XP machines (majority is Win2K, in progress of migrating PC OS). Interestingly, I'm using KiXtart 4.1x on Win2K Adv Svr DCs (in AD), without running KXRPC service on the DCs or the MSVCRT.DLL file in NetLogon. And, I've not seen any problem on the pilot Win9x/2K machines (abt 10) yet. However, I'm just concerned if it'll create any problem or instability issues in the future. Anyone can confirm if it's still required for KiXtart 4.1x, as the KB article is targetting at KiXtart 3.21. Thks.

Les Les KiX Master Registered: 2001-06-11 Posts: 12734 Loc: fortfrances.on.ca	If you read this thread, you will see that it is referenced. http://www.kixtart.org/board/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=14;t=000286 I think most computers these days have msvcrt.dll already so if you are not having any problems, I wouldn't worry. I would however install the KXRPC service. I think in my case a lot of machines didn't have msvcrt.dll installed at the time so found it easiest to put it in NetLogon. Don't really think it was related to the version of KiX but more a sign of the times. _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more.

Les Les KiX Master Registered: 2001-06-11 Posts: 12734 Loc: fortfrances.on.ca	Probably. Remember Jooel, I've been around a few more years than you. I was around when MS first released IE. I had setup an intranet at work when IE was version 3. I still have some servers with IE3 and 4 on them. _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more.

Kdyer Kdyer KiX Supporter Registered: 2001-01-03 Posts: 6241 Loc: Tigard, OR	Two things.. (1) Analysis of KiX-related files May also shed some light on DLLs. Les - Took your advice and had this topic copied to the "KiXtart FAQ & How to's". Not to be nitpicky. (2) FYI - Heads Up- Microsoft's Knowledgebase Changes The Microsoft "Q" system is going away and is being replaced with simple numbers. This has also been copied over to the "KiXtart FAQ & How to's".

Sealeopard Sealeopard KiX Master Registered: 2001-04-25 Posts: 11165 Loc: Boston, MA, USA	I never had problems on 'virgin' Windows 9x/NT/2000/XP installs with regards to DLL dependencies when running KiXtart 4.x. IIRC, all the DLLs required by KiXtart are installed on the OS by default. _________________________ There are two types of vessels, submarines and targets.

kholm kholm Korg Regular Registered: 2000-06-19 Posts: 714 Loc: Randers, Denmark	Like Sealeopard says: No DLL problems on ’virgin’ systems – not even 95 using KiX 4.12 (If KxRPC for KiX 4.12 is installed) Using Dll´s from netlogon instead of %Windir%\System32 or %Windir%\System might make logon from KiX complete successfully. BUT if 'bad' versions exists in the system directory, programs that depends on these DLL's will crash anyway, if the installed DLL´s are wrong. I have had one experience this week where I had to track the DLL´s used by a program. In this situation, it showed up that NT+ DLL´s where installed on a Win9x workstation. How to track DLL dependencies: Start the failing application on a workstation where the application works, and use a tool like pv.exe to extract the dependant DLL/OCX files names and versions, and compare these values to the version-info for the failing workstation. A lot of these wrong DLL´versions could come from BAD install scripts where the installer installs its own DLL’s: Always If the version installed is different – assuming the one in the install is always the newest -Erik
