EQBC as a service

[cudacuf]

Has anyone set up EQBC as a service on a Windows 7 machine and would there be any different steps that what are posted in the Wiki for it?

If you ever set it up on vista its same way.

I've never set it up as a service.

Only thing I've found so far is to be sure to change it to Program Files (X86)

Edit: "C:\Program Files (X86)\Windows Resource Kits\Tools\instsrv.exe" "EQBC Service" "C:\Program Files (X86)\Windows Resource Kits\Tools\srvany.exe"

Yea should be just like the windows kit might need to be ran as xp but should not have any issues if you follow the wiki and have a little common sense.

The biggest thing I was wondering about is if I should still use Windows Resource Kit 2003 or if Windows 7 came with / has one of it's own.

I'll give it a shot, thanks.

Just did it with 2003 kit, works fine. Thanks for inspiring me to get off my ass and do this.

Yeah, I've been meaning to do it for a long time too. I had some downtime today, so decided to do it. Everything is working smooth now. Thanks for the input, all.
