or simply

*startup

To stop the server you will have to open a new command line window or terminal, change directory to <geronimo_home>/bin and run the shutdown command. You will be prompted for username and password. Refer to the Shutdown section for all the options for this command.

If the server is already running you have the option of using the Geronimo Administration Console to stop or restart the server. With the server up and running open a Web browser and point to the following URL to access the console:
