Ruben,

It's best that I don't post my entire config file. However, here is
the tasks section (with some privacy editing). Hope this helps.

    <tasks>
                <exec>
                        <executable>c:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /C</executable>
                        <buildArgs>NET STOP "Service name"</buildArgs>
                </exec>
      <msbuild>
        <executable>C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework
\v3.5\MSBuild.exe</executable>
        <projectFile>...</projectFile>
        <buildArgs>/noconsolelogger /verbosity:normal</buildArgs>
        <targets>Compile</targets>
        <timeout>600</timeout>
        <logger>ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.MsBuild.XmlLogger,...</
logger>
      </msbuild>
          <exec>
                <executable>c:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c</executable>
                <buildArgs>NET START  "Service name"</buildArgs>
    </exec>
    </tasks>
