I have the basic webserver running in win2k pro and I have a separate app that allows a webcam to display live on a webpage. I have the program starting up automatically on login, but if no one is logged in then the web page doesn't show the webcam video. Is it possible for this program to run as a service like the web server that runs even when nobody is logged in?
 
Maybe. First check to see if the program has the option to run as a service built-in. Perhaps you've already done that. If that option doesn't exist, there's a utility that is part of the Windows Resource Kit called srvany.exe that will allow most any program to run as a service. Download this and follow the instructions in the .wri file. It is for advanced users, and involves manually editing the registry. Good luck!
