Hmm, the web page indicated that the ability to logout the user isn't
built in (which you've now worked around successfully), but I got the
impression that specifying valid\invalid logon hours was functional in a
standalone machine... Did you try the page's instructions and issue the
commands to set valid logon hours for your children's accounts? That should
prevent them from simply logging back in when it's not their turn. If it
doesn't work, you could modify your scheduled task to also do the following:
SHUTDOWN -l -f -t 30
NET USER %intransigent_offspring#1's_account_name% /active:no
NET USER %intransigent_offspring#2's_account_name% /active:yes
The /active:no switch disables a logon and /active:yes enables it. So in
the end, you'd have two or more CMD files scheduled to run in the evenings:
The first would logoff kid1, disable his\her account, and enable kid2's
account. And the second CMD file would do the opposite resulting in
domestic harmony until they start squabbling over whose turn it is to play
with the XBox ;-)
