About this task
Use any of the following methods to stop the SafeLinx Server:

-
On Windows, open the Services snap-in (services.msc) of the Microsoft

-
From a command line on the SafeLinx Server, type the following command:
wgstop
What to do next
On Windows, you can also check the status of the SafeLinx Server service from the Services snap-in (services.msc) of the Microsoft Management Console. Similarly, on Linux, you can view the status of the wgated process from the operating system's services monitor.
On Linux, you can type
the following command and examine the output to verify whether the SafeLinx Server
process (wgated) is running:
ps -ef |grep wgated
If the output shows that a process ID
assigned to wgated, then the process is running.
