Hi all again...recently I'm plagued with a trouble on an NT4sp6
machine that I've to mantain (albeit for not much time...):
the box runs IIS 4 to host a site, but every hour or so the service
stops...uhm, better (or worse) yet: the console shows the service
running, but I can't reach it by the net...I then manually stop it,
and when I click on restart a dialog opens saying "The requested
control is not available for the selected service"...I then re-click
"run", and all goes smoothly...until next "crash" at least...
Ideas?
 
Thank in advance,
Graz

Are you all patched up for Code Red? If you get infected, one of the symptoms is the server may basically work itself to death for the worm, and then freeze up. Also, how much traffic are you seeing? You could also be getting scanned so often that IIS may be freezing with all of the hits.

OP

All corrected, I was just a little behind in term of updates...a
couple of them, and all is now running smoothly...
 
Thanks a lot,
