disable DeviceLock; any one can help on this challenge?

Why is the device locking?

Please tell us more about the PC. What device? What Operating System?

What problem *specifically* are you having?

Hi All,

I'm running Win XP Proffissional on my PC over Win2k3 domain. I'm in
charge of evaluating the software whether it can be broke (user can
stop/disable the service "dlservice.exe" ) or not.
Note: DeviceLock is a policy based access control solution that enables
control of USB and FireWire portable storage devices accross the
network. You can cotroll reading, writing or both together.

Regards,

M. Zantout

If it is controlled by policy, then clearly the way to change access to
that device is by changing the policy.

I suggest that you persue that avenue of enquiry.

It looks pretty good.
The first way that comes to my mind is booting up the machine with a
boot disk and actually remove it (although you can generally put some
protections against this, it really depends on how determined they are).

Do you know what you are talking about?

Hi Phil,

Another solution came to my mind is to install "virtual machine" on the
PC, by this we should be able to get access to the PC resources
independently from the original O.S. !!

I don't know specifically how DeviceLock works, but a VM has to proxy
hardware access through the host system and will probably be blocked.
You might want to test this though.

If I have the security permission to install Virtual Machine software,
then I also have permission to disable your device blocking software

Cheers

There is one DLL file related to this software called "DLGPC.DLL", when
I right click it and checked the properties, I didn't find the
"Security" tab nor even "Share" tab !!? it means that this software
tackes the control from the Local Admin. on this security portion for
this file.
