Not sure if this will work on XP as I've only done this on Win7... This is what I did to get multiple masters configured on one slave, but I think you can use this to setting it up as a service on your own.
make a note of the folder listed in the "Remote FS root" in http://<server>/computer/<node>/configure. In my case, it was C:\Jenkins launch a web browser on the windows box, log in to your jenkins server and go to http://<server>/computer/<node>/, right click on the "Launch" icon and "save as" the slave-agent.jnlp to C:\Jenkins edit C:\Jenkins\jenkins-slave.xml, change the -jnlpUrl in <arguments> element from "http://<server>/computer/<node>/slave-agent.jnlp" to "file:///C:/Jenkins/slave-agent.jnlp". install the service C:\Jenkins\jenkins-slave.exe install notes: this assumes you attempted to launch as a service previously and the files are already there hth chanda On Fri, Sep 27, 2013 at 11:18 AM, Steve K <steve.kerxha...@carestream.com>wrote: > > I'm still struggling with a couple of my XP boxes.
