Troy Brude #1 / 7	Service Stop/Start Can someone share some simple VBScript code with me to stop/restart a service on a Remote NT server? Thanks, Troy

MVP #2 / 7	Service Stop/Start Both ADSI and WMI support access to services to query status, stop/start, etc. See Clarence's ADSI and WMI FAQs at http://cwashington.netreach.net/script_repository/faqs.asp?topic=adsifaq http://cwashington.netreach.net/script_repository/faqs.asp?topic=wmifaq -- Michael Harris Microsoft.MVP.Scripting -- Please do not email questions - post them to the newsgroup instead. -- Quote: > Can someone share some simple vbScript code with me to stop/restart a > service on a Remote NT server? > Thanks, > Troy

Troy Brude #3 / 7	Service Stop/Start Thanks Michael. I've seen those, but have 2 questions: 1. How do I modify the script to execute against 'remote' NT machines. 2. How do I check the 'return code' on stop/start requests??

Troy Brude #4 / 7	Service Stop/Start Michael, I've tried to use these examples, but seem to have two problems: 1. How can I execute these against REMOTE machines 2. How do I check the 'return code' of start/stop requests?? Thanks, Troy * Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com * Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

MVP #5 / 7	Service Stop/Start (Tip: if you use a fully qualified DNS name like "myserver.mycompany.com" instead of the NetBIOS name "myserver" you'll get slightly better GetObject performance)... For both ADSI and WMI you need to be in the Administrators group on the remote box. For WMI, you need WMI (preferably the same version) installed on both sides... =============================================== RemoteComputer = "whatever" Set MessengerServiceObj = GetObject("WinNT://" & RemoteComputer & "/messenger") MessengerServiceObj.stop =============================================== RemoteComputer = "whatever" For each Service in GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!//" & RemoteComputer)_ .ExecQuery("select * from Win32_Service where Name='" & ServiceName & "'") Service.StopService Next -- Michael Harris Microsoft.MVP.Scripting -- Please do not email questions - post them to the newsgroup instead. -- Quote: > Thanks Michael.

Troy Brude #6 / 7	Service Stop/Start Michael, I tried your second script and got the following error: C:\TEMP\test.vbs(4, 1) Microsoft VBScript runtime error: ActiveX component can't create object: 'GetObject' I get this error on the "for each service" statement.. What's going on?? I'm running this on a Win2k Pro machine that was upgraded from NTW.

Troy Brude #7 / 7	Service Stop/Start Never mind. I see what I did wrong. I connected to a NT 4.0 machine that isn't running WMI.
