I have used, and recommend the NT resource kit tool "srvany.exe" to run perl scripts as services. This can be used in conjunction with "instsrv", Service Installation Wizard (Srvinstw.exe), or "sc.exe" to configure and start the service. There are also third party tools like FireDaemon (which now wants $$$) to do this.
For the UI, I suggest making your service (or pseudo-service) a web server using the simple HTTP::Daemon module, perhaps on a different port, in case you run a web service on the same server.
...each is assigned
his own private delusion but he cannot see the baggage on his own
back.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
