What service you need start/stop? The 'launchctl' command works as needed to work, ActivityMonitor too. If you don't find the wanted service in prefs, be more precise.

For example, you can install precompiled MYSQL server with a preference pane, what allow you start-restart the server. Some third party dmg files with GNU stuff comes with own preference pane too. Most common services are in the 'Sharing' pane' - like web-server, sshd, CD sharing and so on.

So, in this case - IMHO - better to ask the specific problem, so ask how to start/stop the specific service.Р”Р„s the answer - check first System preferences. I'm wondering, why you need start/stop/restart services with launchctl? Asking because if you not an experienced OS X users you probably will screw the system 'harmony' :).

If mean never, mean in normal usage, of course sometimes needed use it when installing somethings from the macports - for onetime load of startup files or so. I'm using MAC much years, and never needed to use the launchctl command. :) Windows migrated users usually want 'somewhat tweak' the system. It is strange to see the questions between 'windows migrated' and 'default mac' users. I'm sure I typed the right name of the process, I grabbed the name from the list using the command : launchctl list I tried the command: launchctl stop *servicename* and then the command launchctl start *servicename* after I hit return on keyboard after each command the terminal does not show any message so it must be successfull, but when I check out the result in Activity Monitor, it sounds that this command is useless because it has no effect on that process in Activity Monitor. I tried Activity Monitor, but it only kills processes, it does not start them.

As a new comer from Windows OS, I wonder how to start/stop/restart a service on Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8 ?(it's straight forward on Windows using its Task Manager).
