services.msc command line?

[tal ormanda]

Can someone tell me how I can stop a service running with the command line. Then another command to start it back up?

There's also the sc.exe command line util:

sc start servicename

and

sc stop servicename

as well as the new console (PowerShell), which also has simple commands build in for this:

Stop-Service servicename

and

Start-Service servicename

Thank you I knew it was net ___ but your article made me realize I needed to type net start "HERE". The quotes...
