How do I add a new service in NT?

Post #147,775 by broomberg 3/23/04 10:15:02 AM Reply	How do I add a new service in NT? I used the cygrunsrv to add sshd, but it actually created an entry named sshd which points to c:\\cygwin\\bin\\cygrunsrv.exe. I can execute the sshd from windows command line and it works. Can I execute it directly via the services dialog? I don't see how to delete or create new ones in it, only how to start and stop them.

That is you don't need SRVANY and that junk from the RK. -drl

I was sure this facility already existed in Windows 2000 because it was so widespread on NT4. -drl
