[Opensim-users] OpenSimulator and regional settings

[Marck]

Thanks for the hint. Unfortunately, I am not able to start OpenSim.exe directly with

runas /user:DOMAIN\ACCOUNT "PATH TO OpenSim.EXE"

To make it work, I am required to use a batch script and call that script with "runas". Could this be a specialty with .NET applications? (Just in case this might be a useful info for explaining this: I am using Windows XP Home SP 3, 32 bit.)

The batch script I use looks like this:

@echo off
cd /d C:\OpenSim\bin
OpenSim
