This doesn't use svrany.exe, but pythonservice.exe, which is part of the win32 extensions written by Mark Hammond, now with ActiveState. "Python programming on Win32" by Mark Hammond and Andy Robinson contains some documentation on how to use pythonservice.exe. The Windows version of Zope makes use of this driver program, when installing Zope as a service. The relevant logic for running Zope as a Windows service is contained in Zserver/ZService.py. I intend to switch from svrany to using pythonservice.exe for the aforementioned reason.
That's almost all I know about this specific topic at this time; I'd suggest that Andy McKay might ask his colleague Mark about pythonservice.exe, instead of doing guesswork :-)
I just wanted know details of how the registry is set up so I can quickly fiddle with my service settings and write a script to quickly install and uninstall the services to make moving Zope's much easier on win32. It looks like everything I need to know is in ZServer/ZService, I should have just done my usual source grep before asking... Mark actually works in Australia most of the time so asking him isn't as easy as it sounds... Thansk.

Anyone tried or got a script to create / delete the windows registry settings for running a zope server as a service. It would make my life a lot easier... If no-one has I could recreate them from observation.
