[AWS] AWS as a service on a Win2000 server

Anders,

Is that using the code in AWS/demos (runme_control.adb, runme_service.adb) ?

The second one is the right one for services.

Yes, definitly.

As the runme demo uses SSL are you sure you have the SSL DLLs on the PATH
or in the service executable directory ?
