Hi - In response to help from a couple of guys in the firums here I managed to create a UDF to stop services on a remote server.

Code:

FUNCTION STOPSERVICES($SVR, $Service)
    $AD=GetObject("WinNT://"+$SVR+",computer")
    $AD1= $AD.GetObject("Service",$service)
    $SVCSTAT = $AD1.Status
    IF $SVCSTAT <> 1
        $STOPIT = $AD1.Stop
        $SVCSTAT = $AD1.Status
    ENDIF
ENDFUNCTION



Similarly the start() function:

Code:

FUNCTION STARTSERVICES($SVR, $Service)
    $AD=GetObject("WinNT://"+$SVR+",computer")
    $AD1= $AD.GetObject("Service",$service)
    $SVCSTAT = $AD1.Status
    IF $SVCSTAT <> 4
        $STOPIT = $AD1.Start
        $SVCSTAT = $AD1.Status
    ENDIF
ENDFUNCTION
