Pausing LAN Manager Services
Pausing LAN Manager Services
You can pause all running LAN Manager services by pausing the
Workstation service. Or you can pause services individually by specifying
the service name from the command line. Pausing a service puts it on hold.
Unlike stopping, pausing does not cancel connections or change settings.
When you pause the Workstation service, you can use your computer’s
devicenames for local resources instead of shared resources. For example,
the LPT1: devicename might be assigned to a shared printer queue. By
pausing the Workstation service, you can use the devicename for a printer
attached to the LPT1 port on your computer.
To pause a service
• Type net pause service .
For more information about pausing a service, see “Net Pause” in Chapter 5,
“Enhanced Reference.”
