Remote Log Off

[Steve Williams]

Does anyone know how to remote force a log off to one,
many, all users???? Seems everyone fails to log off
since they believe that they are already logged off
because of the password protected screen saver (Sigh) I
can't use win exit because I need the functionality of
the screen saver?? Any suggestions?? Third party solution
welcome???

Morning Steve,

Here is a link that will help. You need to reregister first, and there are
many video tutors but I am referring you to is terminal service under MCSE
70-215.

hour to review a video it would be a great link.

Anyone else... I am trying to force a LOG OFF (NOT
terminal service) to client pcs who fail to log off the
their PC (Windows XP Client)

I am trying to runa script using shutdown /l /f, but for
some reason outlook hangs the process?? Any way to kill
outlook?

Try this code. Change "." in computer name to a remote computer name ("." is local computer)


strComputer= "."
Set objWMI = GetObject("winmgmts:{(Shutdown)}\\" + strComputer + "\root\cimv2")
Set colOperatingSystems = objWMI.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_OperatingSystem")
For Each objOperatingSystem in colOperatingSystems
ObjOperatingSystem.Win32Shutdown(0)
Next

Sva this text in .vbs and run it.
