Any recommendation of  a way to have WAA startup on boot on a Win2003 Server 
before the user login.  I have a batch file that starts everything under the 
All Users Startup.  Can I run that batch file under 
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,...,CurrentVersion,Run?  Or is there a better way so that 
WAA comes up whenever the computer reboots even if there is no one around?

Create an autologon registry entry for a non-admin user that has the WAA
start in his autostart folder.

Search support.microsoft.com for the exact settings and security
considerations...

The Web Application Adaptor Remote Controller software (WaaRC) is getting
very near to completion.  It is already usable, and only 'additional'
functionality is being added.

One feature of WaaRC is that it launches WAA instances at bootup. The
problem of launcing WAA via a service (WaaRC is a service) is that you
cannot see or manipulate the WAA consoles. This is also a benefit, because
you have a nice tidy desk-top when you login.

WaaRC will allow you to start/stop/restart and query information from WAA
instances from a remote machine, providing several interfaces including
telnet and a web browser.

If you'd like more information, send me an email.

Regards,

Phil Ide
