Ben... Could I get a copy of your utility for the restarting of the
services? It would be appreciated!

Jose, We have experienced the same thing at our co-location facility. We run
NT4 Servers & PcAnywhere and sometimes it just will not respond to a
connection. We have used SHUTDOWN.EXE before, but to be honest its not the
correct thing to do with a live web,mail,streaming server. After all its
only the service that has crashed or stopped,why boot the server. The answer
is we wrote a small client server app which will allow you to stop and
restart any of your services on your NT box which 99% of the time resolves
the problem. If the machine has actually crashed then there will be no other
option other than for a manual re-boot by someone at the backbone,but i
suspect that is not
your case. If you or anyone on the list would like a copy of the app let me
know
