This is for a Windows 2000 server.

I'd like to force a service dependency so that I have one service, set to start automatically, cause another service to start when it starts up and then cause the service to stop when it stops. Is this possible?

Look for a Resource Kit for Windows 2000. I believe there is one. The one for NT 4 has an app called sc.exe that will allow you to get detailed information about the services that are running on the system. It also allows you to set and break dependencies between services.
