Yes those are most of the functions I need for CoLinux and the Windows Installer service. Wine has a good bit of that implemented using a pipe for communitcation but I assume on Windows its all LPC/RPC to support "net start servicename". Anyway if no one objects I will look at importing the hackish Wine code and see if I can make it work.
Sure! I can replace the frontend code by a proper RPC implementation when WIDL and rpcrt4 are ready for use. But since we also need a working backend (service management code) it is a good idea to borrow that from Wine.
