I have made some modifications to the jk_nt_service program which hopefully
make it easier to use.  The usage is now

nt_service
        -i <service>
        [ -a | -m | -d ]
        [ -y <service display name> ]
        [ -z <w2k service description> ]
        [ -u <service account>
          -p <service account password> 
        ]
        <config file>

nt_service
        -t <service>

nt_service 
        -r <service>


to install, test, and remove the service.  

The -a, -m, -d options set the start-up mode.

The -u and -p options set the account the service runs under.

The test option causes nt_service to start in the current console the
command that it would have used to start tomcat in the service.  This makes
it easier to diagnose why things don't come up.

Anyway, if anyone wants a copy, just let me know.  (I also modified the
documentation.)  Comments, suggestions, and bug reports are welcome.

*** Also, could someone in the know give me a hand submitting this code back
to the Jakarta project?

Thanks.
Michael Weir
