Hi All,
I've 2 servers in my network ( Win NT 4.0 & Win 2000 ). I want that when I connect to my win2000 via dialin ( internal company requirement to dial in the server & not from Internet ) then how can I check the status of the services running on my Win NT 4.0 server via internet explorer without running any webserver software?
Is it possible to do this?
Awaiting helpful reply / guideness as always.
Regards / Sulman

You would need a server (web or otherwise) to supply that info to the browser.
You may want to post this is the networking forum - unless you are trying to code this yourself.

Internet Explorer must send a request to the server for real time server status info. Thus you will need a program running on the server that outputs server statud data to a txt file or an html file, or to some other format supported by IE web browser. Then, you just type the url into the browser address bar.
AFAIK, there's no command you can type into the browser address bar that will grab the server status info. You can however use a separate utility such as a netwrk monitor to grab such info from the server.
An easy alternative is to use a script in the www dir of the server. The script queries the server for server status info via an html form ad outputs it to a page that is rendered in the browser.

If I run the web server on my win2000 server & want to display the services running on my winnt 4.0 server then can i also do this type of setup? or is it necessary to run the web server on the specific machine whose running services status u want u display via the web browser?
Pls let me know.

As far as I know, you will need it running locally. Major design security hole if it can work without custom code (still a security issue)
