Hello,
We are using 4 Windows 2000 terminal servers with load
balancing. How can I prevent users from logging in one of
the terminal servers even if the terminal sever is up and
running?
Thanks,
Jim.

It sounds like you're asking "How can I use load balancing but not use load
balancing?" Are you asking how to do this temporarily?

I haven't tried this, but what happens if you pause the Terminal Server
service? I don't think you can stop the service, but maybe you can pause
it?
 
Hello,
Right, just stop users to come in to that terminal server
for temporary. How do others do this when one of the
terminal service needs maintenance? I do not want to
reboot terminal server while users are in, but stop users
to come in, eventually everybody will be out by themselves
and then I will reboot the server.

How can I pause service in command line for that a
specific server?
Thanks,
Jim.
