[THIN] Re: new printer mapping issue

I have found that it is usually necessary to forcibly kill the CPM and
spooler service.

I started developing a script to send a test page using rundll32, and
then restart the services if the job errored.
Unfortunately, with a hung spooler, my script would just wait and wait
and wait forever, and never restart or kill the services.

Does anyone have a utility which will kill and restart (or even just
kill) the services when the CPM and spooler are no longer responding?

Thanks,

Adam.
