I have had no problems running Win32::Daemon on XP. Where are you seeing error 10053? Is this in the event log? If so, who is reporting it?

The service has to run as an administrator so that it can read a config file. Running as system/local it was unable to open the file.. My fault - that directory contains sensitive data, and all perms (except mine) been revoked. Regranting perms to SYSTEM fixed that problem. As for running a service on XP, still don't know why that doesn't work.
