Services with a user account that has the "Log on as a service" user right:

CAUSE
If the command string for a service contains multiple words, and the
service logs on under an account other than LocalSystem, the service
controller does not parse the command line correctly.
RESOLUTION
To correct this problem, do one of the following:
- Install the latest U.S. Service Pack for Windows NT version 3.5.
- Restore Sybase SQLServer services startup options to log on as the
System Account.
- Restore SERVICES.EXE from the original Windows NT 3.5 CD-ROM or
floppy disks.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.5.
This problem has been corrected in the latest U.S. Service Pack for Windows
NT version 3.5. For information on obtaining the Service Pack, query on the
