I love Dropbox. We've finally got rid of the file servers in the corner and rely on the Dropbox service for all our internal storage, backup and mirroring to other servers. recently we've started building web applications that can be dynamically updated by just copying files into a Dropbox share - and our clients love it! Key to this is getting Dropbox set up as a service on the remote server.What you need: Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit. Assuming installation was done in default directory.1. Install Dropbox (I used version 1.2.52)2. Choose preferences and uncheck “Show desktop notifications” and “Start Dropbox on system startup”3. Exit Dropbox by clicking exit in the context menu that shows when right clicking icon in task bar4. Execute at command line prompt:C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Resource Kits\Tools>instsrv Dropbox "c:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Resource Kits\Tools\srvany.exe"If everything went ok, the following will be displayed:The service was successfuly added!Make sure that you go into the Control Panel and usethe Services applet to change the Account Name andPassword that this newly installed service will usefor its Security Context.Next is to change the user for witch the newly added service “Dropbox” runs under. Change this to Administrator.5. Choose properties on Dropbox service.6. Click on tab “Log On”7. Click “This account”, and select Admimistrator. Set appropriate password.8. Click Apply and OKIf this is the first time you have done this procedure for the administrator user, you will get an notification saying that the “Administrator user has been granted log on as service rights”Next is to setup some registry settings for the service9. Start > Run > regedit10. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Dropbox11. Create a new key “Parameters”12. Add a new string value “Application”, (type REG_SZ). Set the value to the path to the dropbox.exe binary. Find the location by right clicking on the Dropbox icon on the desktop. Simply copy the path from there.13. Close Registry Editor14. Go back to Services, and start the Dropbox serviceNow everything should be in place and work correctly.Addition: It works fine to stop the Dropbox service, then start Dropbox and make changes in preferences etc, save changes and exit Dropbox. Then you can start Dropbox service again without problems. Work very neat actually. Running now on Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008 64-bit. On Windows Server 2008 you can just copy instsrv.exe and srvany.exe to a folder under Program Files and create the Dropbox service from there.
