It should be easier than that. This article outlines how The Win32 Wrapper, Makes Jetty Running as a Windows NT Service Possible: http://docs.codehaus.org/display/JETTY/Win32Wrapper
I was tired of restarting jetty from the console so I evaluated the possibility to run a bat file or the jar file by double clicking it on the desktop of my windos XP. Finaly I droped that solution because when I should stop jetty I had no console window to close and stop the server. Instead I had to kill all Java processes.. Instead I followed the codehaus article: I run this in the cmd window: Jetty-Service.exe -i jetty- service.conf I also changed the user from system to admin, don´t now if it´s needed. Didn´t bother to change back to system. Jetty and CF started, cf with error. Checked log files, because the error message in the web page is not useful for this kind of problem. Solved the problem, at least on my laptop..
