    Thank you Sir!!!! Its working. Now I can capture the login, logoff, console connect,disconnect events. Using SERVICE_ACCEPT_SESSIONCHANGE I am able to capture the events in the HandlerEx function. Thanks again. With regards, Vaibhav Deshpande.

              What if, after you call RegisterServiceCtrlHandlerEx() to set your HandlerEx() function, you call SetServiceStatus() with SERVICE_ACCEPT_SESSIONCHANGE in the dwControlsAccepted field of the SEVICE_STATUS struct?  Do you get the notifications then? Mark

              Hi, I am trying to develop Win logOn Notification for Vista. My RegisterServiceCtrlHandlerEx() successfully set my HandelrEx() function however I am not able to receive Lock, Logon and logoff events. Moreover as suggested I am also calling SetServiceStatus() with SERVICE_ACCEPT_SESSIONCHANGE in the dwControlsAccepted field of the SEVICE_STATUS struct. The only notification I am getting at the moment in my HandlerEx() fuction is SERVICE_STOPPED. I am using C# for development. Please help me.

                If you're using C#, then using the .NET service classes should be easier... Override ServiceBase.OnSessionChange(). Mark

                      You mean not getting session change events in your service? If so, does this[^] help? Mark

I am using C++ with a generated code using VS2005 of Win32Service, so I call RegisterServiceCtrlHandlerEx() and SetServiceStatus() from within OnStart(). Thanks in advance for your help, Moshe
