User interface for a Service

We have created a program P1 (VB.net) which must be permanently active in
order to perform some administrative tasks on the hard disk. It will be
installed as a service and thus has no user interface.

We want to create a program P2 to allow the Sever Administrator to monitor
the activity of P1; it is necessary for him to know where in its cycle P1
is at a certain moment and how many seconds remain until it starts the next
task. It will also be handy to pause and restart P1 from P2.

Question: Which is the best way to enable the communication between P1 and
P2.

Thank you very much,
Dan
