win32_delete_service - Deletes a service entry from the SCM database

SYNOPSIS

       mixed win32_delete_service (string  $servicename, [string  $machine])

DESCRIPTION

	Attempts to delete a service from the SCM database. Administrative privileges are required for this to succeed.

	This  function	really	just  marks the service for deletion. If other processes (such as the Services Applet) are open, then the deletion
       will be deferred until those applications are closed. If a service is marked for deletion, further attempts to delete  it  will	fail,  and
       attempts to create a new service with that name will also fail.

PARAMETERS

	      o $servicename
		- The short name of the service.

	      o $machine
		- The optional machine name. If omitted, the local machine will be used.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns WIN32_NO_ERROR on success, FALSE if there is a problem with the parameters or a Win32 Error Code on failure.
