sending a command to stop a service on the win box is tricky. you
might setup an sshd on win for this.

or you just write a little dos batch / bash script with cygwin or
native gnuutils to run on the windows box to login to hpux box via ssh
every minute and check wether hpux side is still alive and if not
takes down windows service. that way you can be shure to get down the
windows service even if the hpux box just dies.
