Thanks I will try that too. Does anyone know any potential pitfalls from using srvany.exe to run the startNetworkServer.bat (with some small changes to CD to the DERBY_INSTALL, etc.?

It's easy to setup and configure and seems stable. It's also pretty small (an .exe file (40k) and an .ini file (1k) are all you need).

BTW I got part way there by using srvany.exe and the StartNetworkServer.bat however it runs but I don't know it that is sufficient. Michael Oliver CTO Alarius Systems LLC 6800 E.

The main issue was that the Network Server requires a console and (as I understand it) there is no default output console associated with processes running as a service. There are probably a number of ways to get this working, in this case the developer was successful using the open source Java Service Wrapper by Tanuki Software. Access this software at: http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.org/doc/english/index.html. Hope this helps.
