fyi...

When you stop the System Attendant, it will automatically stop the Directory
Service because the DS is dependent on the SA, at the same time the
Information Store is dependant on the DS, so the IS will automatically stop as
well, and down the line until everything related to something related to
(blah, blah, blah..) the System Attendant is stopped.

THE PROBLEM IS with all this junk going on, sometimes it never comes back
around and finishes stopping the System Attendant.  There is an MS Technet
article that goes into more detail.

The MS suggestion is to run the net stop for the System Attendant twice.  The
first one stops everything else and then the second one stops the SA if it is
still running.

Another method to clean up your .bat file and save some typing is below... and
yes this works on NT.

(
net stop service1
net stop service2
net stop service3
)    >>filename.log

 speaking about Ms Exchange 5.x, to save typing, just stop the
System Attendant, and it will stop all Exchange related services:

 net stop MSExchangeSA /y

 the same command will work, even if you have Exchange add-ons, as
mail filtering or fax routing services. at least, it was working so
when i was dealing with Exchange ;-)
