win32serviceutil - remove service

[Roger Upole]

Something like this should work if you have sufficient privileges.

import win32service
svc_mgr =
win32service.OpenSCManager('server_name',None,win32service.SC_MANAGER_ALL_AC
CESS)
svc_handle =
win32service.OpenService(svc_mgr,'svc_name',win32service.SERVICE_ALL_ACCESS)
win32service.DeleteService(svc_handle)
