I have an associate that uses/wrote some applications that run on some of my NT4/W2K servers. My problem with this is you are required to leave the user they use logged in to run these applications. For obvious reasons I do not like leaving servers logged in when no one is at the console. Is there a way to make these applications run as services so I can see them in the services.msc MMC? Does anything specific need to be done to make an application a service, or is there a command that can be run to initialize the app as a service? Just wondering what the limitations are. Right now they have these apps in the Start up folder, which only works when they login. I think I read somewhere at some point you can do something at the command line to make this happen. It would be a great help if I could figure this out and lock down these NT4/W2K servers that much more.
