Run as a service

[Terry Olsen]

I'm creating a dynamic dns update client as a windows forms application. I'd
like to have an option to "run as a service" or just run it as a Windows
Forms app. Is this possible with a single executable file? Are there any
examples on how to accomplish this if it is indeed possible? Or are two
executables required (a front end and a service)?

Thanks.

If you run as service, how are you going to configure it?

It's best to have a service component and a front end.
