To start a service:
net start service_name

To stop a service:
net stop service_name

no i not mean that lets take an example like telnet is the service and i want to make its startup type to manual currently its disabled now tell me how can i make it manual or automatic from command prompt

Oops! My mistake
Use following command:

sc config service_name start= startup_type

where startup_type may be:

auto for automatic
demand for manual
disabled for disable

e.g.,

sc config Alerter start= auto
sc config Alerter start= demand
sc config Alerter start= disabled
