    net stop terminal services not working

    I have a windows 2003 server with SP1 installed on my computer. I have a problem, I cannot stop terminal services nor can i start a stopped service. I have to reboot the server for changes to be made. Can anyone help me to stop any terminal service without a reboot? The option to restart the service or start/stop appears greyed out [like disabled]. Please help!

    Did you try using the commands from command prompt? See this :

    To start a service, type:

    net startservice

    To stop a service, type:
    net stopservice

    To pause a service, type:
    net pauseservice

    To resume a service, type:
    net continueservice
