Thanks Hugh,
The reasons for not wanting to run it as a service is I am currently
just doing testing on Windows, at some later point after I have things
working roughly the way I want them I will want to port it over to a
linux server. The windows machine I am doing testing on is my own
machine, and I suppose I only need it to run when I am programming the
solution or demoing for some people.
The reason not to just put in on linux currently is I don't have a
linux machine which isn't dedicated to something else - could do VM
but I figured I actually have to just set the bookmarks application up
and extract data, put data in it to test some stuff.
Cheers,
Bryan Rasmussen
