	Default values:

	MrtgKick-PathName=C:\\MRTG\\Run\\MrtgKick.Cmd
	Debug=0

2) Run install.cmd as Administrator

=========================================================

Command line options:

5mrtg	-install - install service
5mrtg	-remove  - remove service

5mrtg	-run     - run as executable for testing (Debug is ON)



5mrtg	-update  - update service configuration from registry
5mrtg	-info    - print service configuration

(Interprocess communication via shared memory: must be same executable)


Debugging: via OutputDebugString(), run DBGVIEW.EXE from sysinternals.

after this entry time.
