Hi
Anyone know how to restrict users from using Windows 2000 computer using a
certain time of the day?
Thanks.
 
In a domain you can configure a users logon hours in their AD user account.
For a workstation you can configure that with the net user command - use net
help user for more information. Keep in mind that these settings will not
log a user off of the local console after their hours expire if they are
already logged on. That would require a third party logoff screensaver, or
using the AT command or Sceduled Task to forcibly log a user off at a
certain time [which can not be user specific on a computer] running
something like shutdown, loggoff, or PsShutdown [free from
ysinternals]. --- Steve
 
Thanks Steven
