First a question:
Have you written the server program as a windows service? You can't
just run something as a service, it has to be written to be a service.
Your setup files will look something like the ones below.
Client:
from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe
setup(name="client", zipfile=None,
windows=[{"script":"client.py",
"icon_resources":[(1,"client.ico")]}],
options={"py2exe": {"compressed": 1,
"optimize": 2,
"bundle_files":1}}
)
Obviously the program here was called client.py. You will
need an icon to supply to icon_resources. This creates a
single .EXE file from as much as py2exe can possible put
into it.
Server:
from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe
setup(service=[script:"server.py"], zipfile=None,
options={"py2exe":{"compressed": 1,
"optimize": 2,
"bundle_files":1}}
)
Of course replace 'server' with the name of your program.
These are merely EXAMPLES. Your specific needs might be
different depending on specifics of your program.
Hope it helps.
