Just for kicks, I tested this on an old Citrix Winframe 1.7 server (NT 3.51).
At the server console, the machine reboots...but over an ICA connection it just
drops the client connection and kills the process. Also crashed NT Workstation
4.0 SP6a. Looks like this might have been a problem for a while...
