Installing SPD Server as a Service
When you configure SPD Server in the Services window for the first time, the Status
column for the servers will be blank, and the Startup Type column will be set to
Manual.
Most users want to configure SPD Server to automatically start and stop the Name Server,
Data Server, and SNET server. The Automatic setting loads the Name Server, Data Server,
and SNET server without prompting. It stops the services without prompting when you
close Windows.
To change the Startup Type for the Name Server, select the service in the list, and then
right-click on it and select Properties. Use the properties window to configure the Startup
Type setting for the Name Server.
