Configuring Caucus as an NT Service |
![]() |
Configuring Caucus as an NT service guarantees that Caucus will run independently as soon as your NT machine boots, without any intervention, and with the proper security restraints.
The previous steps have automatically installed Caucus as a service and added the appropriate entries to the NT registry. All that remains is to manually configure the Caucus start-up type, and start the new service.
Under "Log On As", make sure the "This Account" radio button is checked. In the field next to "This Account", select caucus. Make sure to enter the actual password (and confirmation) for the caucus account. Click OK.
If you are installing Caucus on a host on an NT domain that is not the primary server, you may see an error message about "Could not start service due to a logon failure". If this happens, clear the error message, wait 2 minutes, and try clicking on the "Start" button again. Sometimes it may take several minutes for the primary server to properly register the "Log On As" right.
Caucus is now installed. To begin using it, you must still configure your web server.
