&gt;<br>
&gt;Michael Ryan wrote:<br>
&gt;&gt; First, Bryan and Arno, thanks for the suggestions and help. My <br>
&gt;&gt; service does link directly to the wcap.dll, and it is not part of a <br>
&gt;&gt; group.<br>
&gt;&gt; <br>
&gt;&gt; In the scenario described below and by Bryan earlier, is there any <br>
&gt;&gt; way my service can depend on NPF directly and avoid the middle <br>
&gt;&gt; service?<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;In your service's registry key, add a REG_MULTI_SZ named<br>
&gt;&quot;DependOnServices&quot; (or possibly &quot;DependOnService&quot;; I
don't remember for<br>
&gt;sure, so check out some of the other service keys on your machine and<br>
&gt;use whatever value-name they use). You'll have to use regedt32 if you<br>
&gt;do this on a 2K Pro box, but XP's regedit can handle it just fine.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;The data is a list of service names ( == names of registry keys) that<br>
&gt;your service should depend on. Add &quot;NM&quot; and &quot;NPF&quot; to
this list (the<br>
&gt;names are case-insensitive), because those are the registry keys for the<br>
&gt;&quot;Network Monitor driver&quot; driver and the &quot;Netgroup Packet
Filter&quot; driver.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;You'll need both, because wpcap.dll links against packet.dll, which<br>
&gt;links against wanpacket.dll, which calls LoadLibrary on the Netmon<br>
&gt;client DLL, which tries to start the &quot;nm&quot; driver if it isn't
already<br>
&gt;running.<br>
&gt;<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
