1. The account ASP.NET runs under needs permissions to start/stop the =
service. Just add it to Admin group.
2. did you write the service "MyService" itself?
3. Why do you need to start/stop service from ASP.NET. The service =
usually starts automatically when windows starts.

Andy,

Well, for starting/stopping services you'll need the Administrator
rights. Haven't tried it myself but hey, it are the organs of your
Windows OS ;)
