Service

The functions in the service category control network service programs. They are run on a local requester. Attempting to process the functions on a remote server returns ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED.

Under DOS, the services cannot be completely stopped; they can be paused and continued, however, with NetServiceControl. ┌───────────────────────────────────────┬──────────────────────────────────────┐
