Subject: Tomcat on Windows: advantages of running as a service?
I'm running Tomcat 5.0.28 on a Windows 2003 server, and I need to
automatically shut it down restart it. One way is to control it
The net start service name and net stop service name commands
will allow you to stop and start Windows services from the command line
(and thus from a batch script). You can get the service name from the
Services property window.

Running from a service makes it a no brainer to start up tomcat when you reboot
the machine as it does it automatically.
Disadvantages I would see is that it hides the console and makes it difficult
to changes options like JAVA_OPTS.
