I have written an application in .NET 2 (I also have .NET 1 installed).
Until a few days ago, I could use regsvcs without any problem in order to
installed my serviced assemblies in COM+. All of a sudden, when I tried it
today, I got "You must have administrative credentials to perform this
task".

I am running resvcs under a user account which is absolutely a local admin
on the machine.

I can't seem to find anyone else reporting this problem.

Any ideas?

TIA

I solved the problem. The tlb files had been marked as read only for
whatever reason, and thus a new attempt at running regsvcs failed because
the previous tlb's could not be overwritten.
