554.0. "DRAS on Windows NT 4.0 fails to start.......setupdb has been run" by CSC32::D_SHAVEY () Wed May 28 1997 13:06

    Problem:
    
    Windows NT v4.0 (on a server and a workstation)
    
    DRAS V1.0A installs fine and the DRASSRV install executes fine.
    
    When we try to start up the dras service, we get:
    
    Could not start the remote access security service on xxxxxxx
    
    Filename, directory name, or volume label are not correct
    
    
    This happens on both an Windows NT 4.0 server and workstation.
    
    For what it is worth this is on an NTFS partition. Also I could not
    find the MFC40.dll file in  the /windows/system  directory.
    
    Any ideas?

554.1Check registry entryIROCZ::DEROSIERDick DerosierWed May 28 1997 13:3010
    I would suspect an incorrect entry in the registry.  You could use
    regedit.exe and check the registry entry under the key:
    
    \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services]RemoteAccessSecurity
    
    and verify that the ImagePath entry is correct.
    
    mfc40.dll should be in subdirectory system32, not in system.
