Hi
You can't use this Group Policy setting for console logoff.
This forced logoff policy is a policy for SMB server, i.e. the computer
which has a network share accessible from a network. This policy, if
enabled on a server, ends the users session with the server when their
logon hours expire.
Here is a quote from the documentation for Windows XP's
"Net accounts" found at
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/proddocs/net_accounts.asp
<quote>
/forcelogoff:{minutes | no}
Sets the number of minutes to wait before ending a user's session
with a server when the user account or valid logon time expires.
The default value, no, prevents users from being forced to log off.
