Description

The host task object represents DCE processes running on a machine in (or to be added to) a DCE cell. The host task object allows administrators to easily configure and start DCE on machines.

The host task object can configure and start the core DCE services on a machine. This includes dced, CDS, dtsd, and auditd. The argument to this command is the DCE name of a host to operate on. If an argument is omitted, the command operates on the local host, if possible. The behavior of commands operating locally may differ slightly with more operations performed on the local host then is possible remotely. See the Operations topic for details.

Currently only a client can be configured using the host command.

Note: All operations of the host task object are not fully supported in this release.
