If you want to know what I need it for, PM/E-Mail me. I don't want to post it here since some people will go ahead and beat me in releasing it, and I really want to be the one to release this one.
If you are gonna post it eventually anyway, I will just wait and see.
I was just curious about what you are doing because I could think of any way that this would be usefull.
Only use for this kind of command that I could think of would be starting an FTP server or something like that, but then you would need one that could be shut down via the command prompt as well for it to be truly usefull
Shutting down via command prompt is possible too.
There's two programs: tasklist and taskkill. tasklist lists all the running processes and taskkill is to close them.
Description:
This command line tool can be used to end one or more processes.
Processes can be killed by the process id or image name.
Parameter List:
/S system Specifies the remote system to connect to.
/U [domain\]user Specifies the user context under which
the command should execute.
/P [password] Specifies the password for the given
user context. Prompts for input if omitted.
/F Specifies to forcefully terminate
process(es).
/FI filter Displays a set of tasks that match a
given criteria specified by the filter.
/PID process id Specifies the PID of the process that
has to be terminated.
/IM image name Specifies the image name of the process
that has to be terminated. Wildcard '*'
can be used to specify all image names.
/T Tree kill: terminates the specified process
and any child processes which were started by it.
/? Displays this help/usage.
