Once again, I wouldn't mind a way to turn off *ALL* the RPC stuff, including the RPC service itself, without paying the price of having almost everything I do afterward just sit there and stupidly wait for it to respond. A box with it disabled *will* run, just barely, it'll just be sluggish as hell. Or at the very least a way to run it so it doesn't listen on a socket bound to *. How 'bout localhost-only, or the equivalent of unix-domain pipes, or *something* to keep it insulated from the network?? How 'bout the same for SMB/tcp 445? Argh. There's probably some registry hack that *could* do that. _H* _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
