I'm currently doing something like that, and I use Remoting for the comunication.

Several user, even from different computers, can access the service and place any requests I want them to...
As a basic implementation as you need it's pretty easy.

Implement the functionality outside of the WinService, as a WinForms project simulating it (much easier to debug). Then just place the code inside the Service Project.

Go to google and search for: .net Remoting

Also take a look at:
MSDN
developer.com
Book

I also use remoting for distributed apps. There is a book that I found invaluable http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/t...102-9188408-9628938?v=glance&s=books&n=507846
