It was not possible to create starpacks that could be services in
TDK 2.6, they had to be Tcl scripts using the tclsvc.exe executable
(NT services require special handling at initialization).  TDK 3,
now in beta, has a special base kit for creating starpacks that are
NT services.  Please download and try it:

Everything should be the same, except you use the base-tclsvc kit
that comes in the distro.  This will create a starpack that is
specifically designed to be an NT service.  Please tell us if that
works (hopefully it goes flawlessly ... but it is a beta ;) ).
