The commands to stop and start a service are 'net stop <servicename>' and '
net start <servicename>'.

You get <servicename> from what is specified in the registry under
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services. You could also use the Display
Name as listed in the Services Tool, but you have to put it in quotes.

For example, to stop and start the SQL Sharepoint service, you would use:

net stop mssql$sharepoint
net start mssql$sharepoint

Its servicename in the registry and its display name are the same, so let
me give you another example using smtp.
In the registry it is listed as smtpsvc. In the Services Tool it is listed
as "Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP)". This is the Display Name.

'net stop "Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP)"' and 'net stop smtpsvc'
would both stop the smtp service.
