SLP configuration issue

Hi All
I am building CIMOM with SLP enabled for windows platform.  I used the following build options.

set PEGASUS_ENABLE_SLP=true
set PEGASUS_USE_OPENSLP=true
set PEGASUS_EXTERNAL_SLP_HOME=C:/smis-op-provider/src/openslp-1.2.1/openslp-1.2.1/win32/libslp

While building I was not able to build SLPProvider.dll as it was not able to link . I guess the make file was not correct for windows. So I changed the make find as below.
---------
SOURCES = peg_slp_agent.cpp

include $(ROOT)/mak/library.mak

ifeq ($(OS_TYPE),windows)
    SYS_LIBS = ws2_32.lib advapi32.lib
    SYS_LIBS += /libpath:$(PEGASUS_EXTERNAL_SLP_HOME)/lib slp.lib  <<-- This is the line added to makefile for build to succeed.****
endif

run:
                Server $(REPOSITORY_ROOT)
-------------------
With this I am able to build CIMOM with slp enabled.
Now, If I start the CIMOM service when the SLP service is running . Everything works just fine. The CIMOM registers to SLP and able to see the ports of CIMOM service running  through slptool
But , If I start the CIMOM service when SLP service is not running  then  I see the CIMOM service is stopping immediately . Wondering why CIMOM service should stop if SLP is not running. I cannot send the traces as attachment due to size limit.


1.       Is this  makefile change required for building SLP on Windows platform? I  guess its working fine on Linux platforms.

2.       Is it  mandatory to run SLP service if SLP is enabled in CIMOM? Or is it a bug in CIMOM on windows platform.


Thank in advance
