7.3B NT server as an NT Service, Servany utility
To get the 7.3B NT Server to automatically start as a service under
NT using the SERVANY utility that comes wtih the NT 3.5 resource kit
you will need to do the following:
Following the directions for the SERVANY utility located in the
RESKIT35 directory, create a service called MYSERVICE. Then create a
PARAMETERS key with the following values:
Application:REG_SZ:C:\USERS\DEFAULT\STARTSRV.BAT
AppDirectory:REG_SZ:C:\USERS\DEFAULT
Then modify the service MYSERVICE to use your login and password via
the Services applet on the control panel.
The STARTSRV.BAT looks like this:
SET DLC=C:\DLC
SET PROMSGS=C:\DLC\PROMSGS
SET PROCFG=C:\DLC\PROGRESS.CFG
C:\DLC\BIN\_mprosrv -N TCP -S demosv3 dbname
Commands to start the Open Interface Broker can also be added to the
STARTSRV.BAT file. For example:
SET PROOIDRV=C:\DLC\BIN\OIDRVR32.EXE
C:\DLC\BIN\OIBRKR32 -SV -S oidrvr -N TCP
CAUTION: Unpredictable results can be experienced using SERVANY on
Version 6 and 7.3B of the Progress NT Database Server.
Progress does NOT recommend the use of SERVANY with Version 6 and 7 of
the Progress NT Database server.
The only way to shut down the database and the open iterface broker is
to shutdown the windows itself. This is a limitation of the Version 6
and 7 NT Database Server product. Version 8 of the NT Database Server
product will be capable of being loaded as an NT service, and like our
V6 and V7 NT server products, will not work with the SERVANY utility
as this functionality will be built into our server product.
