How to run NINJAM server on Windows as a service

Download NINJAM server directly here:
https://www.cockos.com/ninjam/index.php#Downloads

It comes as a compressed archive file and there is no need to install it. Just extract it to e.g. c:\ninjam

Go to the folder an create a copy of the example.cfg naming it whateveruwant.cfg. Please change the config as needed. Info on that can be found here:
https://www.cockos.com/ninjam/server-guide.php

Download the Non-Sucking Service Manager here: http://nssm.cc/download

Extract the zip file to wherever you want, e.g. to C:\nssm, open a command prompt at C:\nssm\win64\ and type:
nssm.exe install NINJAMServer
It will then open a dialog where you choose the executable that you want to run as a service. If you are folling this tut briefly you will enter this for the path:
C:\ninjam\ninjamsrv.exe
and for the arguments this:
whateveruwant.cfg
Leave the other tabs as is and click "Install service".

Now open the windows services by using Win+R and starting services.msc :

Start the serive named NINJAMServer.

Open firewall port 2049 for both TCP & UDP!

Make sure your server is accessible. Configuration on Azure would look like this:

Done!
