Hot to get the status of a Windows service in ASP / .net ?

I need to find a way to monitor the status of a list of Windows services over HTTP, preferably without any third party program).

All I really need to be able to do is display the service name and its status ('Started' / 'Stopped').

I'm not an ASP programmer so this is a little outside my realm. I've searched and haven't been able to find much yet.

Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

From stackoverflow

• using System;
  using System.Collections.Generic;
  using System.Linq;
  using System.Web;
  using System.Web.UI;
  using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
  using System.ServiceProcess;
  
  public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
  {
      protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
      {
  
  
  
          ServiceController[] services = ServiceController.GetServices();
  
          Response.Write("List of running services : <BR>");
          foreach (ServiceController service in services)
          {
  
  
              Response.Write(string.Format(" Service Name: {0} , status {1} <BR>", service.ServiceName, service.Status.ToString()));
  
  
  
          }
      }
  }
  

  just remember to add the system.serviceprocess reference

• It seems to me that you wish to enumerate services on a REMOTE computer. This can be accomplished using WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation), here's how:

  ConnectionOptions connection = new ConnectionOptions();
  connection.Username = userNameBox.Text;
  connection.Password = passwordBox.Text;
  connection.Authority = "ntlmdomain:DOMAIN";
  
  ManagementScope scope = new ManagementScope("\\\\FullComputerName\\root\\CIMV2", connection);
  scope.Connect();
  
  ObjectQuery query= new ObjectQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_Service"); 
  
  ManagementObjectSearcher searcher = 
                      new ManagementObjectSearcher(scope, query);
  
  foreach (ManagementObject queryObj in searcher.Get())
  {
       Console.WriteLine("-----------------------------------");
       Console.WriteLine("Win32_Service instance");
       Console.WriteLine("-----------------------------------");
       Console.WriteLine("Caption: {0}", queryObj["Caption"]);
       Console.WriteLine("Description: {0}", queryObj["Description"]);
       Console.WriteLine("Name: {0}", queryObj["Name"]);
       Console.WriteLine("PathName: {0}", queryObj["PathName"]);
       Console.WriteLine("State: {0}", queryObj["State"]);
       Console.WriteLine("Status: {0}", queryObj["Status"]);
  }
