Running Tomcat (6.0.10) as a windows service

Hello fellow Tomcatters...

I'm trying to set up Tomcat to
start with Windows and run
as a Windows service,
with no success so far...

I've tried to do that with the Tomcat
Properties dialog
in the dropdown "Startup Type:"
I have set it to automatic but it does not
retain that setting  .. I click apply and ok,
close the dialog..
re-open the dialog... and it's back to manual..

Not knowing a whole lot about Tomcat.... yet...
is there a config file in the Tomcat folder
that I can edit to get the desired result?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

BTW Johnny,
I meant to ask you in my reply,
are there any drawbacks that you are aware of
having Tomcat start and run as a service ?
ie: majorly long boot-up times or anything
like that.

I have'nt tried it yet.. since going into the MMC
and switching it to auto..

Thanks again,
Rod

Hey Johnny...
Good to hear from you again..
we spoke some months back
as I recall..

Thanks for that suggestion,
 I should have thought of it
[:-s

I've gone into the services snap in
and set that to auto
I'll know on next re-start
:-p

Thanks again..
Have a cool summer..

Yes, it doesnt hold the setting.
Open Control Panel -> Admin Tools -> Services
Do it from the windows service... should work
