Is it possible to close/shutdown a program from a .bat file?

i would like to know too

depends on the program id imagine. I know there are some bat files our host uses and other host id imagine that are used to start/stop/restart programs in a program called firedaemon. If its a net service, I think the command,

net quit "program, or program.exe"
exit

might work

sup []Iba.]^POsR] have you sucked andrews dick for admin on any servers lately?

You need the XP Resource Kit. Then you have commandline access to most everything. To terminate a process you'd use KILL (eg c:\> kill process_id/window_title/task_name).

To answer my own question...
TASKKILL(for xpPro)
tskill(for xpHome)
Terminal services must be enabled for those to function though.

Ok so the question is -- How can I close hudbot at the same time I close tribes?

You can pass the /wait argument to the start command to pause the bat file at that place I think... Then you could just put the close commands after that.

Ohh you don't need resource kits anymore.. GJ MS!
