Lock Out A User

May 6th, 2006

I was wondering if there is a way to lock out a user on a remote workstation while he/she is logged on. I know how to access compmgmt.msc on the remote workstation.... can it be done through this?

Have A Great Day!!!!!! ;-)

Nope-- there's really not a way to do it as you've described.

You could disable the Local User account, and use shutdown -l from a command line. Might that work for you?
