How 2 Running Tomcat as Service on Win2000 Pro

[yandri]

Dear All,

Im using Alfresco Community 2.1..
I wonder, is it possible to run Tomcat as Service on Win2000 Pro, or Win XP.
So i dont have to log-in, click the alf_start.bat to run tomcat.
Thx Before

Look in the \bin subfolder of your Tomcat installation - there should be a service.bat file which will help.

Thanks,
