Stopping cognos services

[coledog]

How can I stop cognos services on  one server running the web part and start then again after the a task is complete. I was looking at the AT command  but is there a better way ? :'(

If it is a Windows machine, you could use VBScript and WMI to do it. Google "Hey, Scripting Guy! Archive", if I recall correctly it has an example on that very subject.
