Event ID: 7024, Source: Service Control Manager, Type: Error Description: The

CAUSE
=====
This problem occurs because the MDB extension files in the server's
%SystemRoot%\RPL directory and in the %SystemRoot%\RPL\Backup directory are
corrupt, read-only, or non-existent.
RESOLUTION
==========
To enable the Remoteboot service, use the following procedure:
1. Make sure that the MDB extension files are not marked read-only.
2. Assuming that SYSTEM.MDB and RPLSVC.MDB are located in the %SystemRoot%\RPL
and %SystemRoot%\RPL\Backup directories and are not marked read-only, the
files are probably corrupt. If so, either delete or rename the *.MDB files.
3. Copy the MDB extension files from the CLIENTS\RPL directory on the Windows NT
Server version 3.5 Installation CD-ROM. Make sure to remove the read-only
attributes after copying the files.
4. Restart the Remoteboot service.
5. Backup the Remoteboot database by choosing BackupDatabase from the Configure
menu of Remoteboot Manager.
