start / stop apache and mysql remotely

[louph]

good day. is there any way that i can restart apache and mysql remotely or thru a web interface?

i'm running xampp on a headless windows xp and would like to be able to restart/stop/start apache and mysql when i update my db and code.

Apache monitor in the apache\bin folder will let you do this.

Run the program and double click the icon in the task bar.
If you then click the connect button it will let you control apache on another workstation. I am not sure abut mysql though.
