Setting up server.pl to run as a NT service

[pheliorg]

It is easy to setup apps to run as a service in
NT4 IE 5.5
2000 and Win XP

Its called Task Schduler and it is located in
Start / Settings / Control Panel / Scheduled Tasks

No matter if you are logged in or not it will launch any program of
your choosing and can be configured to restart the program if it were
to crash.

I have been using this method to run programs as a service for 3
years Think of it as a *NIX Cron Service.

oh another nice feature is you can make the programs run under
alternate user credentials so if a program doesnt need admin rights
you can use a user account that has none.

I know I saw instructions on here before, but I have yet to dig

them

up. Searching for "NT service" and other variations just led down
wacky paths.
Can anyone put their finger on those instructions to setup

server.pl

to run as a Windows NT/2000 Service?
Thank You in advance.

I don't know about Scott, but the instructions in README.INSTALL didn't
work for me. I'm running 2000.

I think this information is in README.INSTALL

I am using the firedaemon. It works great for me and it's freeware.

Using the Microsoft-provided tools from the resource kit to do this is
documented here:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q137890

The Windows version of the SLiMP3 server is easier to run as a service
than a perl interpreter with a script. You can get that here:
