I have win2k advanced server and as fa as i know all the web services are configured correctly however when i go to start either the ftp, web or admin services they never start on the first time, i get an error saying the application did not start in a timely manner?
Any advice would be appreciated.

I forgot to mention that after i get the error i can click to start the service and it starts instantly.

Is there a large application, such as a database, that is still initializing when the web server is trying to start? This could also be a sign that you have a resource shortage (not enough RAM, not enough swap space or disks full/too slow.)

I have 256mb ram, 300mb swapfile and the os is on a 15 gig quantum fireball with 8 gig spare, p3-667.

Have you used the Event Viewer to check the logs for errors at the time you're first trying to start the services? If there are entries, they miay give you good clues about what exactly is going wrong.

I hope this helps.
