You might find the answer here: http://labs.trolltech.com/blogs/2008/02/22/qlocalserver-qlocalsocket/ - seems QLocalSocket is your friend :) (I haven't read the article though)

Not sure if I understand your question correctly, but there is a "Qt solution" (1):

See the entire list: http://qt.nokia.com/products/appdev/add-on-products/catalog/4

See "Service": http://qt.nokia.com/products/appdev/add-on-products/catalog/4/Utilities/qtservice/ 

Quote: "The project provides a QtService template class that can be used to implement service applications, and a QtServiceController class to control a service.

On Windows systems the implementation uses the Service Control Manager.

On Unix systems services are implemented as daemons."

Is this what you are looking for?

Cheers, Oliver

(1) "Qt solutions" are classes (commercial) classes provided by Nokia, which are not (yet) part of the Qt API itself
