Set it up to reboot every night and tell him/her it's because of patching. From: Michael B. Smith [mailto:mich...@owa.smithcons.com] Sent: Thursday, October 22, 2009 4:33 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: User who doesn't like logging off / shutting down
I ASSume you push patches. He/she may lose whatever they were working on when a patch session forces a reboot. Dunno what you mean by "ticket expiration" as Kerberos will renew tickets automatically. ________________________________ From: Andrew Levicki [and...@levicki.me.uk] Sent: Thursday, October 22, 2009 4:29 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: User who doesn't like logging off / shutting down Hi, I've got a user who doesn't want to log off let alone shut down their computer. They claim that it takes too long and they haven't got time to wait to log on again or start up. They're important enough that I can't force them to do so, but I'm worried about possible problems. The only detrimental effects that I can think of are added power consumption and ticket expiration. Can anybody else think of any other pitfalls or even have any experience of this and how did you deal with it?
