How to install HostMonitor as Win32 Interactive service
1) Install HostMonitor on your system (start installation program host-mon.exe). If you already have HostMonitor installed on your system, skip this step.
2) Start installed HostMonitor with command line parameter “/InstallService”. E.g. “hostmon.exe /InstallService”. Program must install itself as service and show message like “Advanced Host Monitor service installed”.
Note #1: When HostMonitor starts as service it uses the local system account (as all interactive services). But this account doesn't have a lot permissions, and some tests will not work (UNC test, "disk free space" test for shared drives, "CPU Usage" test for remote machines, etc). If you need these tests, you have to assign special user account on Service page in the Options dialog. In this case HostMonitor will impersonate the security context of the user.
Do not change account using system utility "Services", in this case HostMonitor will not be able to interact with desktop.
Note #2: we do not recommend install HostMonitor as service under Windows NT 4.0. At least as interactive service. In case you really need to start HostMonitor as service on Windows NT, please, disable “allow service to interact with desktop” option in the Service Manager (after service installation). In this case you will not be able to see HostMonitor’s icon in the system tray. And to configure program you will need to start second copy of HostMonitor as a regular program, change settings and restart HostMonitor’s service.
On Windows 2000/XP systems HostMonitor works without problem.
Regards
Alex

When you install Hostmonitor as a service and if you have a different keyboard layout than english, you need to verify that the systems default input locale is set to your language otherwise you will have english input on Hostmonitor.
