Someone told me that I can logoff a user on a remote machine using Computer
Management. I can connect to the remote machine with Computer Management but
I don't see any options to logoff a user. Do I miss anything or there is a
snap-in I need to add? I have a scaript to do so but just need to find out
what I told was right or wrong.

Thanks.
 
Not aware of any logoff option, but you can DISCONNECT sessions under the
Shares node; as a courtesy, you can also send a console message to the target
machines to warn users that their sessions will be disconnected.
 
That is correct, but why would you? If you're on the remote machine, via RDP
for example, you have already knocked off the remote user. And once there,
just logoff with the GUI. Now if shutdown -l worked with the -m switch... ;)
