Convert EXE into Windows Service

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.general (More info?)

Does Microsoft have any utilities that will convert and executable into a
Windows Service? I know there are 3rd party utilities, but I didn't want to
buy one if there was already one available in Win2k.

TIA,
Ken

From the NT Resource Kit...

INSTSRV.EXE
SRVANY.EXE

The following is an example of installing the SETI Command Line utility as a service.
The SETI Command Line utility was renamed to; myseti.exe for the following...


@echo off
:
: S@H Client Daemon
: v1.3
:
copy ".\SaH\*.*" %windir% >nul
%windir%\instsrv MySeti %windir%\srvany.exe
regedit /s .\sah_serv.reg
c:
cd %windir%
cmd

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MySeti]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MySeti\Parameters]
"Application"="c:\\winnt\\MySeti.exe"
"AppDirectory"="c:\\winnt"


To remove a service use the NT Resource Kit utility; delsrv.exe

Does this work under Win2k?

Duh !
That's why I posted the information in a Win2K News Group.

I used the term NT Resource Kit because the three utilities;
INSTSRV.EXE
SRVANY.EXE
DELSRV.EXE

Will work for; NT4, Win2K, WinXP and Win2003 Server which are all "NT" Operating Systems.

You know "NT" can cause some to scurry so his question was understandable. I believe there is a good KB artcle on the David.

Thanx George !

Note that the MS article uses the same language... "...Windows NT and Srvany.exe allows any
Windows NT application..."
