Executing program in startup letting it in background
Hi!
i've installed a program called vu_brief for synchrionizing via ftp two application servers, but i need it that this program will be always running in the background. I've tried to put it at startup menu and like a sheduled time at Startup Time, but it didn't work. It only works when i log on into win2k.
Can u help me plz? Idea is got it running like a windows service, the ftp synchronization will always work.
Thanks in advance.

i've installed my program as a service with instsrv.exe like microsoft tells in the link u gave me, but when i try to start service from service manager it tells me:
Could not start Vu_Brief service service on local computer
Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.

Did you use SRVANY too?
NOTE: To verify that the service was created correctly, check the registry to verify that the ImagePath value under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ CurrentCon trolSet\Se rvices\ser vice name is set to point to SRVANY.EXE.
