Add .exe to Windows Service Rumi, January 9, 2009 It had way been long days since looked for some tool to make exe’s run as windows service. Well, guess everybody knows the advantage of service tool rather than put the appz on start up menu! Simple- the application loads prior windows users log in to the system! Anyway, I just discovered a beautiful application bundled with windows poppasswd server- it’s called addsvc. Let’s see how it works (this is an example on how poppasswd service was installed)- Informing System of Poppassd CWMail/DMailWeb is expecting poppassd to be setup on port 106, using TCP protocol. This is done by setting the compiled program as a Service. A program call: addsvr.exe was provided in the archive. This file will make nt_poppassd.exe into a service by typing the following line: addsvc -add poppassd nt_poppassd.exe “poppassd — Changing Passwords” To remove the Service type the following addsvc -del poppassd Once setup goto the service’s panel (ie start -> settings -> control pannel -> services) Select the labeled “poppassd — Changing Passwords” and click on the ‘startup’ button. Change the ‘Log On As’ to ‘This Account’ and select an account that is allowed to change passwords. (ie administractor account). Download- addsvc Things to keep in mind The .exe file should be placed into WINNT or Windows > System32 directory No absolute path will work here. This tool is good for API tools to be included in the service database. Happy solutions!!! isn’t this- right? Related Administrations Configurations (Windows)
