Starting and stopping NT services via the admin console

I use this to start and stop the PCAnywhere service. It is very useful to disconnect someone that forgot to logout or when the software hangs. Just use the lines below.

load net stop "pcANYWHERE Host Service"

load net start "pcANYWHERE Host Service"

However, you can use it for any NT service
