Testing WireGL
The software release of WireGL comes preconfigured for testing using a single machine through the TCP/IP localhost connection. To test WireGL, perform the following steps:

Installing WireGL
These steps are virtually identical to the above steps however you will need to modify the wiregl.conf file to match your configuration. Installing the Windows Service
The pipeserver application can be run in the background as a Windows Service. This allows the WireGL server to always be running on a particular machine regarless of whether a user is logged in at the machine.

To install the service type:

 pipeserver -install 
This will install the pipeserver service in the system registry. By default the service is started at boot time. To start the service manually, type:
 net start wiregl 
To stop the service, type:
 net stop wiregl 
To uninstall the service, run:
 pipeserver -remove 
This will stop the service and remove it from the system registry.
