[Zope] how to run the server in backgnd in win95/98

[Paul Zwarts]

Under any Windows version all the way down to win95 first ed, you can enter
a registry key to start a program:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Run

Add a string called Zope or whatever you want it to be called
Modify the value to contain the path and filename of the script or in
windoze case the .bat file that will start the Zserver.

Keep in mind that this will give you the gratuitous DOS window that will
basically stay there until you dont mind Zope dying with it. Removing the -D
option, you will probably get a window that you can close without killing
zope, but cant say I've ever tried it. If you have a problem with this, then
my only suggestion is get a real operating system, and I dont mean windows
2000... IMHO... ; )

Under Windows 2000 and NT4, you can run it as a win32 service.
