A Hirsi,
It depends on when you need this to run. If you need this to run all
the time, then I think that a service would be better. Asking that a user
be logged onto a machine just so you can provide the service (an apt
description I would say) isn't too feasable.
Hope this helps.

Hi
I am planning to use the filesystemwatcher to monitor an ftp site for
changes to a file. I would like to download the file if it changes and
process it locally. I read somewhere that I do not need a service to accomplish
this and only need to write my filesystemwatcher. Do I really need to make
the Filesystemwatcher program a service?
Can someone please point me in the right direction.
Thanks.
A Hirsi
