Run as an NT Service?

Would it be possible to incorporate a CLI version of NZB TV that could be ran as an NT service? I'm thinking the CLI part would only need to read the configuration files and be responsible for downloading the NZB files.

This would be greatly appreciated. I leave NZB TV running on my always-on server, but I have to stay logged in for the program to function. If the server does reboot (installing patches, etc.) then I would have to log in again. Running as a service would eliminate this nuisance.

Thanks for considering this feature.

In short: No

I have thought about it but it's just too much extra work.
You can setup a server as auto login though, extremely bad practice for obvious reasons. (google for autoadminlogon)

There are also tools to run normal exe as a service but i haven't used them since NT4 realy so i don't know if you can do it with a .NET program.

Thanks for the response Eric.  I defintely don't want to run the server with auto-login on.  However, the utilities which allow you to run a "normal" program as a service still work.

For any interested, the instructions are at: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/137890

The only difficult part is that if you want to make changes to the configuration.  To do so, you'll need to stop the service, then run NZB-TV normally to access the GUI and make the configuration changes.  Afterwards, you'd need to restart the service.

I guess as long as it works that's all that matters.  :)
