Another option if you've got SQL, is to schedule a SQL job and use xp_cmdshell and a cmd file.
You can do error checking based on errorlevels and send mail, write to error log etc etc. Ian -----Original Message----- From: Weaver, Anthony [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 10 May 2002 15:28 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: restarting a service Couldn't you use CFEXECUTE and call a bat file that does a NET STOP and NET START ? -----Original Message----- From: Mario Martinez [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, May 10, 2002 10:13 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: restarting a service Hi friends: This is my problem: I need to restart a service periodically.
