Don't pass the command-line arguments in the same registry string as the application. Here's the whole procedure: Start by running instsrv.exe to create the Windows service and point it to srvany.exe. This creates a new registry key at HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Service\Squeezeslave with the string value 'ImagePath' of (on my system) C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools\srvany.exe Under the Squeezeslave key, create another key (folder) called 'Parameters'. Under Parameters create two string values, 'Application' and 'AppParameters', with respective values of C:Program Files\Squeezeslave\squeezeslave.exe and --signal --retry --mac 00:00:00:00:0f 192.168.9.11 Adjust the mac address and the ip address of your server to suit your tastes. -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54124 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
