To be honest, I have no idea. If you want to use it in a batch file, I'm sure there's some way to pass the password to it, although it might not be as simple as an additional attribute. > Also, if I use net start instead, will it always > start the service under the account listed, even > when called from a script? Yes. Services always run within the account in which they're configured to run. This is the option I'd recommend. The cfstart.bat file seems useful for diagnostics, but not for restarting CFMX, really. Just write a batch file with the appropriate "net stop" and "net start" commands, and you'll be all set.
