FreeFlow Variable Information Suite 5.0 (7/2006) VIPO-97
Using VIPO Services
VIPO and VIPO Servers can be initiated from a Windows Service, which allows the
various servers to be initiated and to perform operations without requiring a manual
logon. Launching and activating VIPO and VIPO servers when the system is booted up
allows a “hands-off” VIPO system.
Use of VIPO Services depends entirely upon the proper installation of the functionality.
For a complete description of the installation process, and related background
information, refer to the Variable Information Suite Installation Guide.
