You can pause all running LAN Manager services by pausing
the Workstation service. Or you can pause services individually
by specifying the service name from the command line. Pausing a
service puts it on hold. Unlike stopping, pausing does not cancel
connections or change settings.
When you pause the Workstation service, you can use your computer's
devicenames for local resources instead of shared resources. For
example, the LPT1: devicename might be assigned to a shared printer
queue. By pausing the Workstation service, you can use the devicename
for a printer attached to the LPT1 port on your computer.
