Naren writes "Is there any way to enable/disable a DTS job from command line? The reason is we have two servers (one prod and other one backup) and a DTS job which pulls data every 5 minutes should only run from one server which is active. If I can do the enable/disable from outside then I can read an ini file which tells me which server DTS job has to be enabled. Any other suggestion welcome. Thanks"

Use sp_update_job to disable a job. To do it from the command line you would use osql and execute sp_update_job. Take a look at sp_update_job in SQL Server Books Online. You'll want to use the @enabled input parameter.
