Installing uTorrent on WHS “Vail” as Service. Windows Home Server 2011. HOWTO: Install uTorrent as a service on Windows Home Server (WHS) CTP | deciphered.net.

I had always used my personal computer to download torrents overnight, but as the point of installing a WHS machine was to enable all other computers to be off overnight the WHS machine had to take over this job.
After a week or so of looking into the issue I found a solution to do so and as I have just recently upgraded my WHS from Beta 2 to CTP I have had to re-do this process. The whole process is documented below so that anyone who also has the same needs as I can achieve them. Update (13/07/07): I have an updated version of this tutorial as a PDF available here. Step 1 – Download all required software. Step 2 – Create new user. Click the OK button in the User Properties dialog.Close the Computer Management window.Hi Start and select Log Off.
