You forgot the "/y" on the end since it's going to ask you to shut down all the dependent services. You would also need to run the script twice to get all the services to go down.
John Matteson; Exchange Manager Geac Corporate Infrastructure Systems and Standards (404) 239 - 2981 Defeat is a state of mind. No one is ever defeated until defeat has been accepted as a reality. To me, defeat in anything is merely temporary, and its punishment is but an urge for me to greater effort to achieve my goal. Defeat simply tells me that something is wrong in my doing; it is a path leading to success and truth. --Bruce Lee -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Miller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, April 19, 2002 2:22 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: How to create a script for shutting down services Start | run | cmd Copy con stop.bat Net stop "microsoft exchange system attendant" CTRL+Z Then run stop.bat --Kevinm TSSSBE, M, WLKMMAS, UCC+WCA, And Beyond http://www.daughtry.ca/ For Graphics and WebDesign, GO here! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of David Fortuna Sent: Friday, April 19, 2002 11:15 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: How to create a script for shutting down services How do I create a script to shut down all exchange 5.5 services.
