Hi,

I want to use the telnet service on a windows xp system, so that I can
log in start a process and exit. Unfortunately, the process does not
remain running after I disconnect the telnet session. This is easily
reproduced by connecting and entering the command:

start ping /t localhost

The ping process is running. As soon as I exit the telnet session the
ping process dies.

I've tried setting the registry setting:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\TelnetServer
\1.0\DisconnectKillAllApps to 0. Running tlntadmn does indeed show

End tasks on disconnect : NO

However it has no effect. Processes are still terminated when the
telnet session closes. Is this even possible in Windows XP
Professional SP2 ?

Thanks,
Manish

XP was never developed to be a "telnet" server. Look at "Remote
Desktop"

Seems odd - why include the Telnet Service in the os it is not fit for
purpose?

Can't use Remote Desktop as I'm scripting this from a Java build
process. I've changed my windows processes to be services, so that I
can use the net start/stop command to start them.

Telnet was included to connect to "text" based services such as
Linux / Unix servers over TCP/IP networks.
