    Hi, Can we create a service (using VC++ 6) that runs on Windows 98. OR the services can only run on Windows NT and 2000. Do they run on Windows XP. Could you please tell me that on which Windows operating systems they can run.? If i want to run them on Linux and Unix what are the thing to be considered? Regards.

      It is also possible to simulate a "service" on 9x platforms, although not a true NT service. You have to use a function from kernel32.dll with GetProcAddress (although I don't remember the function name now, is something like RegisterService or similar, but I might be wrong).

        Hi, As far as my i know, windows services can only run on NT/2k/XP onwords. we can't deploy windows/NT services on windows 98 and on linux too. but we can utilize the same functionality by running as a background process or demon.
