You can use service.exe to control a service from the command line. The following table shows the commands that can be used for most services:
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
| load <service name> | Activates a service that is inactive. |
| list | Lists all services available on the device. |
| start <service instance> | Starts a specific service. |
| stop <service instance> | Stops a specific service. |
| refresh <service instance> | Causes a service to refresh its configuration parameters. |
| unload <service instance> | Causes a service to be unloaded and removed. |
| register <service name> | Causes a service to be automatically loaded on the next device reboot. |
| unregister <service name> | A service will not be automatically loaded on the next device reboot. |
| command <service name> [arg1 arg2 ...] | Sends service-specific command(s) to a service. |
| help <service name> | Displays information about which service-specific commands are supported. |
Note <service instance> stands for the instantiation of a service, e.g., HTP0. <servie name> stands for the service's name as it is displayed in the protected registry, e.g., HTTPD.
To control a Telnet server using Services.exe, type the following syntax at a command prompt:
s -d list
s services -d start tel0:
s services -d stop tel0:
s services -d refresh tel0:
The above commands will list all the available services on your device. Services.exe will start the Telnet server, then stop it, and then refresh its configuration parameters.
Adding the "-d" flag will generate a debug output, instead of console output.
