Hi
I use sceduling (under Control Panel) to start WaaServer. Using  event 
'Computer StartUp', with user and password.
Turn off and on, and it works in the background.

Hello all!

Does anyone know how I can install WaaServer as a service?

For now I'm trying to resolve this with an Alaska's sample:

C:\ALASKA\XPPW32\SOURCE\samples\apps\SimpleService


Thanks for any help!

Best Regards,
Adelaide Lopes

We have developed WaaRC - aWAA Remote Controller, which allows you to
control WAA from a remote computer (start/stop etc - everything you can do
from the WAA console, plus more).

WaaRC runs as a service.

When WAA is run, it loads a WaaRC client package, which allows WaaRC to hook
into WAA and control it.

One 'side effect' of this is that when you start WAA through WaaRC, WAA is
run using the same account credentials as WaaRC - usually LOCAL, and is
therefore invisible to any logged on users.

WaaRC uses hooks into WAA to be able to successfully shut down WAA using the
proper shutdown sequence, just as if you had 'clicked the X' on the WAA
console window - rather than just crashing it.

There is one feature of WaaRC that we never finished, which is the log
analysis routines.  If you can live without that for the time being, I'm
sure we can arrange for some testing of WaaRC for you.

WaaRC also has the abiity to launch WAA when WaaRC starts up, and to
automatically relaunch WAA if it crashes.

Phil Ide

Instead of this, you can use the following command line to lock the
workstation immediately after WAA has been started:

%windir%\system32\rundll32.exe user32.dll LockWorkStation
