DIRMON: A Sample Directory Monitor Service Written by Irving De la Cruz (irvingd@microsoft.com) Copyright (c) 1996-1997 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. Last Revision: May 8, 1997 SYNOPSIS This sample is a Windows NT service that demonstrates how to logon onto the messaging subsystem with the Exchange service provider in the login profile, from the context of a Windows NT server. Once logged, the service watches file activity (CREATE, MODIFY, DELETE, and RENAME changes) on the specified directory and posts these changes to a public folder in the Exchange public folder store. The sample also demonstrates how to grant the proper rights to the account the service uses when the service is installed. The NT service must login to the DOMAIN account associated with the Exchange account in the MAPI profile. The Microsoft Exchange server account used by the service must have the proper rights on the Exchange server installation to create a folder in the public folder hierarchy and post messages in it. REQUIREMENTS To compile this program you must have: Windows NT 3.51 or later. Microsoft Visual C++ version 4.0 or later. To run the service you must have installed: Microsoft Exchange client 4.0 or later with an account in a Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0 or later. BUILDING THE CODE This sample was developed using Microsoft Visual C++ 4.x. Its associated make file is DIRMON.MAK.
