script to log off users from server

hello. Also thankyou Pegasus for your last script.
I need a script to log off users from my SBS 2003 server. I have told them
they have to do it, but sometimes they forget.
A little info about the server
users folders are redirected to the server.

I found psshutdown.exe and the command, just wondering if there is another
way.

Have a look at the native shutdown.exe command.

....but note that if users have open files, they'll lose changes.
As a wise man said, "There are seldom good technological solutions to
behavioral problems."

Well said . . . but are you sure it wasn't a wise woman who said it? :-)

ROFLOL!

PS: not funny because one might think that a "wise woman" was an oxymoron,
but because one wise woman (or wise wench, as it were) neglected to make
such an insightful point herself!

Nope. It was the inimitable Mr. Ed Crowley of fame, myth and lore.

Ptui. I'm just an idiot who can google real fast. ;-)

Try this batch file ... I wrote it for a coleague of mine who had to
disconnect RDP sessions to make a backup:

echo off
FOR /F "usebackq delims== " %%i IN (`"query session | find "rdp-tcp#""`) DO
logoff %%i

You have to run this from the console session ... It will disconnect all
users except the one where the script is running from.

I don't think that last script would work, becuase the users are going in
from the lan, not remote.
