Solve : Altering Properties of a Service?

Answer»

Hi all,

Would like to know if it is possible to alter the PROPERTIES (ie: startup-type) of a service ?sure, assuming your on XP, type sc /? on the COMMAND line.
Using W2k3 Web Server Edition.

But thanks for the tip.Control Panel / Admin Tools / Component Services...right CLICK each one you want to change.

Be careful you can render that machine un-bootable turning the wrong ONES off...Cheers Patio.

Wanting to avoid users click-hopping to make these updates.

Have already commenced creating a self contained script that will alter about 12 services.

Many thanks for your tip though - I'm testing it on a spare box before it hits any live server.
And becuase of what I'm doing, it is being throughly checked over even before I perform the tests.
