Although not strictly a batch file solution, you could get a 3rd party app like Firedeamon (sp) , which will turn your app into a service. you can then create a batch file with something like ...<br />
<br />
<br />
@echo off<br />
net stop MumServer<br />
net start MumServer<br />
<br />
Since it gets installed as a service , you can set it to start on system startup, or set it to manual, and start/stop it via batch files, scheduled tasks, vbscipt etc etc.

Create Batch File for Server2003 to kill app and then to start app

Batch files are text files containing a script of commands that are executed by the command interpreter on DOS, OS/2 and Windows systems. Most commonly, they are used to perform a series of functions that are repeated -- copying a set of files created daily with one step, for example.
