    Hai, I wrote a windows service application using c#. I am able to install it using InstallUtil.exe provided by .NET framework. But I want to install the same service on a different machine which does not have .NET framework. I think, InstallUtil.exe comes only when you install .NET (correct me if I am wrong). But I dont want to install .NET framework just for this utility. Does c# provide any class which can be used to install a service? I read about ServiceProcess.ServiceController. But this only helps me to monitor the installed services. Any suggestions... omkamal

      Oops Sorry folks. I read that you need .net framework to atleast run a .NET application ( no matter its a service or whatever ). So there is no way but to rely on InstallUtil.exe. Thanks anyways omkamal
