How does one stop a specific IIS website by name (not IIS altogether) via the command line? ( I don't need iisreset /stop and /start ). I have a website named &quot;foo.com&quot; that needs to be stopped, and then restarted.<br />
<br />
I saw some PoSH listings, but I'm hoping for something more simple...<br />
<br />
Thanks.<br />

Need to stop/start a specific IIS website (not IIS altogether)

A web server refers to the software that helps to deliver web content that can be accessed either through the Internet or through an intranet. The primary function of a web server is to store, process and deliver web pages to clients. The communication between client and server takes place using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The most common use of web servers is to host websites, but there are other uses such as gaming, data storage, running enterprise applications, handling email, FTP, etc.

Web Servers

IIS is Internet Information Services, the web server included with Windows Server operating systems. All current versions are built on a modular architecture; modules can be added or removed individually so that those required for specific functionality are installed. The full installation of IIS includes HTTP, security, content, compression, caching, logging and diagnostics.

Microsoft IIS Web Server

Web development includes all aspects of presenting content on intranets and the Internet, including delivery development, protocols, languages and standards, server software, browser clients, databases and multimedia generation.
