Hi all,


I would like to run my Perl script as the service in Windows XP. How do
achieve that? I heard that using Microsoft Management Console can
achieve that. However, read thru the help file of the MMC, i still do
not get how to create it. Do someone know how to start from the very
beginning step?


I don't know what is meant by the answer given under:

I have no idea how to create a service from a script with MMC.

You may have better success with either googling for 'srvany.exe' from M$ or better IMHO using the module Win32::Daemon to create a native service.

Have a look at Win32::Daemon::Simple. It sits on top of Win32::Daemon to make the process much easier for you.
