There are two ways you can run Apache:
<UL>
- <LI>As a <A HREF="#service">"service"</A> (available on Windows NT/2000 only).
+ <LI>As a <A HREF="win_service.html#service">"service"</A> (available on
+ Windows NT/2000, and experimentally on Windows 95, 98 or ME).
This is the best option if you want Apache to automatically start when you
machine boots, and to keep Apache running when you log-off.
- <LI>From a <A HREF="#cmdline">console window</A>. This is the only option
- available for Windows 95/98 users, and MUST be used by Windows NT/2000
- users before to attempting to run as a service.
+ <LI>From a <A HREF="#cmdline">console window</A>. This MUST be used by any
+ administrator to test before to attempting to run as a service.
</UL>
