You can use the utility SRVANY.EXE, included with the NT resource Kit.
Installation of a service
copy SRVANY.EXE and install it as a NT services, like: INSTSRV MyServi
ce c:\tools\srvany.exe
configure via the Services applet("Startup..." dialog) of the Control
Panel as manual or automatic
set via via the Services applet the account for the service. If you ne
ed Access to the screen & keyboard, you must choose the LocalSystem ac
count and click the "Allow Service to Interact with Desktop".
run REGEDIT and create the following PARAMETERS key :
HKEY_LOCAL_MacHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servics\MyService
Application=
AppParameters= (optional)
AppDirectory=
al)
To execute a Java program as a service:
Create the service with INSTSRV JavaService c:\tools\srvany.exe
Specify in the Control Panel if it`s manual or automatic
In the REGISTRY
HKEY_LOCAL_MacHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servics\JavaService
Application=c:\jdk1.1\bin\Java.exe
AppParameters=c:\Java\classes\myClass
AppDirectory=c:\Java\classes
The benefits are :
Allow applications to survive logoff/logon sequences, hence saving ove
rhead of re-starting them for each new user
allow server to come-up and service requests even when no user is logg
ed on
allow applications to run and perform a task in a specific logon accou
nt, different from the currently logged-on user.
Starting and Stopping :
If configured as automatic, the user doesn`t need to start it explicit
ely: it is started automatically every time the system is re-booted. F
or manual services, the user may start a service with :
(with the SC.EXE utility) ex. SC start MyService or with NET START
MyService
SC stop MyService or NET STOP
MyService
To de-install a service :
INSTSRV MyService remove
Also in the Microsoft SDK 2.0, a package called com.ms.service that pr
ovides this functionality is included. Some utilitIEs and demos are in
cluded. Check the Microsoft Java Web site for more infos.
NOTE These Microsoft utilitIEs can`t be freely distributed. You may wa
nt to take a look at invoker, a freeware equivalent of MS srvany.exe f
or running executables as services.

很多在Windows下有C++開發經驗的兄弟在轉到Java時，都會問：怎麼使我寫的Java程序也能夠作為NT的服務運行呢？
其實有兩種解決方案:
1、MS本身提供的platform sdk for java 4.0中包含了大量的使用Java開發NT服務和COM的例子，不過需要MS的虛擬機和編譯器
2、使用Sun的標准JDK實現，可參見以下網址:

該文的Java應用實際完成做注冊RMI對象的任務，當然，我們可以替換其為socket listener等等，不過要求開發者同時熟悉NT下服務的運做機制。
