Memory Useage

[iolair]

Is there a way to tell how much memory certain features are using? I've opened task manager, but I can't find a process for DHCP or DNS or IIS. Is there a way to tell how much RAM these things use? Maybe from the command line?

Probably because most windows services are under the guise of SVCHOST.exe (as you will see multiple instances of this in the Windows task manager)

Process Explorer (

) will give you a better view than Task Manager. You can see look at each svchost process and see what it's actually running plus the view can be customized to show various memory measurements.

Yes, there are several instances of svchost.exe running. Thanks for the Process Explorer tip, that'll fix me up.
