   7. Click Stop. The IBM MQSeries service stops.

   8. Click Start. The IBM MQSeries service restarts.

In addition to being able to add to the list of users that are allowed access to a service, we can deny access to specific users and groups. This means that we can grant access to a group of users (by specifying a group name) but deny access to individuals within that group.
