Checking Status

DCEsetup provides a window in which to view the status of the various DCE daemons. The status window shows the various components, their current configuration, and their daemon running state (for example, Running or Not Running).

Some of the component names that appear in the status window correspond to daemons as defined in the table below.

Although, the status window is automatically updated during a session, there may be a slight delay in the updating of status. Use the Refresh button to ensure the latest status.
