In my case remote workstation was XP and a user was unable to connect using remote desktop client, after disconnecting from the same computer couple of minutes ago. I have decided to initiate reboot of the client workstation using:
Because there was no one around the client machine to see what's happening on the monitor, and the user desperately needed to establish remote connection to the client workstation I have decided to kill the winlogon process. Using PSKill from PSTools suite I have executed:
shutdown /f /r /m \\computername,but the machine was hung up, and I tried to initiate same command again but the response was :
A system shutdown is in progress.(1115)
After waiting few more minutes the client workstation was not rebooted.
pskill -t \\computername winlogon
and the remote workstation was rebooted. Note that killing winlogon process is nearly the same as pulling the plug on the machine.
In case you come across this hack on some online drug detox forum discussing effective ways to pass hair drug tests, you must know that it has only a 40% success rate. Using repeated bleach treatment could help you get a negative result, but your hair will suffer for sure. Unless you are ready to take the risk, you may want to ignore this method; it may not be a viable option. You can, of course, shave all your body hair, including that of your head. But be ready with a good excuse to give your employer. Your “going bald” is a big giveaway that you’re trying to avert getting tested.
