Hi Diego,
I've recently done a similar install. You can get tracd to run as a windows
service using srvany.exe. This program is part of the Windows Resource Kit
Tools package which you can download from the microsoft website. It is a
little involved to get it working, but the information is in the help files.

Cheers,
Clint
