AnyServiceInstaller on WHS 2011?

[JazJon]

Can we use AnyServiceInstaller on WHS 2011? I'm waiting for a reply in two threads. (so I thought I'd ask here too)

You'll see someone talk about using 2003 Resource Kit Tools, for uTorrent install as a service here:

I found this possible Scheduled Task method:

I'd like to use AnyServiceInstaller though if possible, probably better than a Scheduled Task I'd imagine long term.

 

My goal is to install Vuze Torrent and other iPhone streaming apps etc.

UPDATE:

 

Task Schedule works great in WHS 2011 (free and simple)

 

Server Manager (near start menu)

-Drill down to, Configuration, Task Scheduler

-click Create Task. (not the Basic one)

-Give it name, click Run whether user is logged in or not, configure for Windows 7, 2008

 

Triggers Tab

-New, (drop down menu) Begin the task at startup, click ok

 

Actions Tab

-New, Start a program, Browse (to .exe) click ok

 

Conditions Tab

-Uncheck the box that says to Stop the task if ran for 3 days. (so it runs forever)

 

Back to General Tab

-Click ok and it will prompt for Administrator password

 

Click "Task Scheduler Library" (right underneath "Task Scheduler" in Server Manage)

 

Run it ! (should work when you reboot too) I see my program running in task manager, so far so good!)

Why not just try it? I can't think of a reason why it wouldn't work but, if I wasn't sure, I'd just give it a try.
