Andy,
try this:
<c:forEach var="service" items="${services}" varStatus="status">>
<TR>
<TD><c:out value="${service.name}"/></TD>
<TD><html:multibox property="selectedServices[${status.index}]"><c:out
value="${service.status}"/></html:multibox></TD>
</TR>
</c:forEach>
If the selectedServices is an array of Strings in your form,
and service.status == selectedServices[n], then the the checkbox
should be checked or atleast the tag should render the appropriate
HTML such that the checkbox should be checked.
I believe the problem is that the selectedServices is an indexed property.
If your container support JSP2.0 spec, then the above should work. If not,
then you will have to use the equivalent Struts-EL tag.
I think you see most examples using <logic:iterate .../> because it supports
and "indexed hook" into indexed tags by setting its indexed attribute to true.
But the whole indexed property thing is hard to get your head around.
This link may give you some more insight.

BTW, the above code has not been tested.
If your selectedServices array is not the same length as your services
ArrayList,
then things are going to get ugly.
