[Winpcap-users] problem using winpcap 3.1 with windows service

[Gianluca Varenni]

Hi Arno,

as I replied to Bryan (and to you privately), I'm pretty sure the problem is not in the loading of NPF, but rather related to NetMon (=yet another issue with that crappy module, argh...). 

Have a nice day
GV

  Hello Ryan,

  I have the same problem.
  It looks like the problem is in the packet.dll, this uses OpenService() and StartService() to load the npf-driver.
  If another service would to load the npf-driver and your service was depending on this service the problem would be fixed (i think).

  I am in contact with Gianluca to try to fix the problem.

  Hope this helps.

  With regards,
  Arno Arkesteijn.

    Hello,

    I have a service that uses winpcap.  The service is set to start automatically.  

    With winpcap 3.1 Beta 4 the service starts as expected each time the computer boots.  

    However, with the final version of winpcap 3.1 the service does not start automatically with each boot.  Interestingly, once the computer boots you can start my service manually and it works as expected.  It just does not start automatically.

    I am not sure what is happening here.  One possibility is that winpcap is dependent on a third service that has not launched itself when my service starts( which is why you can launch my service manually after the boot is complete), but there is probably some other reason.  Any input would be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Michael Ryan
