Hello Tom,

On Sun, 9 Nov 2003 11:37:49 -0500 your time, you said:

TB> Ah, there is a mightily simple way of doing this that someone on
TB> this list pointed me to. Create a batch file which reads:

TB> :start
TB> xigui32.exe                     (for 2.4d10)
TB> goto start

How  is  this  batch  file  called?  I  mean,  do  you  simply name it
xigui32.exe and then Xitami finds it?

I just named mine xitami.bat (irrelevant, really), and launch that INSTEAD
of launching Xitami directly. Make sure you place this file in the same
directory as xigui32.exe.

Regarding service stability: I found that the service version was LESS
stable. In addition, every time it crashed, it wrote to a memtrace.lst file,
which it kept growing unitl it filled my hard drive. So the service
auto-restart neer came into play!
I never got the service version to run for more than a week. The console
version lasts up to 2 weeks. I recently upgraded my server to a P3-600,
768meg ram, new install of Win2kPro. So far it lasted 2 weeks before
crashing.
I run about 7 domains, a couple thousand hits a week, and the only thing
beyond HTML I run is a CGI counter.
