Hi, I am trying to develop some win32 code wich would use services, ( ie. I would like to develop some code which could run as a win32 service ). I have been following the wine mailing list, but I am not aware of the status of services in wine and if an implementation is underway

All the machinery for the services seem's to be in wine, so I am wondering if there has been any attempts ? There has been discussion but nothing attempted yet. I think the plan was to add support to wineboot. Thanks Steven __ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo! DSL

Would it not be possible to launch wineserver to handle NT services ? Thus if the user was logged in services would be running ( if he fx. had started wineserver in his .xsession file ). I do realise that there are issues such as privileges and multiuser, but this would circumvent them

dont do it ! even wineboot isnt started by the server ! You might want to make a wrapper application like wine/programs/services. This program could then be started by wineserver and a config option if you want to try and run a NT service. I dont really see the point on running services
