Dear feiends,

Usually this involves writing a service wrapper (usually in C) that acts as the windows server and interacts with your Java application. There are open source "Java Service Wrappers" available - simply google for them:

Here are some examples:
What is the Java Service Wrapper?
Running Java Applications as a Windows Service By Rick Proctor
Running a Java� 2 Application as an NT Service
How to make a Java NT Service
Java Windows NT Services

Whether these solutions will continue to work on Vista(Codename Longhorn) I don't know (I have my doubts; a new wrapper may be required).

Moving this to the General Computing Forum.
