Hi,

I was trying to find a solution how to run POE applications as a Windows
service.  I've found two solutions so far, but I am not quite satisfied
with them.

 o Using Win32::Daemon with POE::Component::Daemon::Win32

   This would be perfect, but Win32::Daemon is not available as a PPM
   for Perl 5.10.

   POE::Component::Daemon::Win32 is not available as a PPM at all.

   Win32::Daemon for Perl 5.10 is still beta and it seems this project
   is stalled.  There's no source available to further develop this, is
   there?

 o Using instsrv and srvany from Windows.

   This tools do not interact with POE.  They simply kill the service
   without giving it a chance to stop.

Are there any other solutions to run POE as a service?
Probably I should still stick to Perl 5.8 and Win32::Daemon?


Thanks,
Andreas
