Re: [Wrapper-user] Wrapper question

[Lars S. <Lar...@if...>]

Hi Leif

The problem is that I would like to be able to start the service from a 
Java program, I have a System Tray program that allows me to perform 
actions on the service and I can already restart and stop the service, 
so I would like to be able to start the service as well. I would like to 
be able to start the service from a Runtime.exec(), is that possible?
Is it possible to use the -u option from within the wrapper?
