Is there a way to programmatically turn on remote registry?

[Kevin Holleran]

Thanks!  I think this is getting me on the right track.  Now when I attempt
to start the RemoteRegistry service I am getting an exception "The RPC
server is unavailable."  However, I am done with this for today so back at
it on Monday.

Thanks for your help.

Kevin
