User greatone-d on the NMT forum successfully turned llink into a service on his Windows 2003 server.

His method uses the SrvAny tool. SrvAny and its installer "InstSrv" are applications provided by Microsoft. SrvAny allows Windows applications to run as a service.

Easily adapted instructions are included with the program in the file SRVANY.WRI and many other places on the web. Here are links to a few sites:

Here's an older Microsoft HowTo about the SrvAny: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/137890

greatone-d's instructions: ''I figured it this out and have it working on W2k3...

Using SrvAny, ensure you add the working directory line to the registry... AKA.
