In W2K days, I would *always* log off an admin TS session and then do a remote shutdown/reboot. Executing a shutdown from within the interactive session was problematic, to say the least. I think part of it was breaking down TS-generated printer connections. I don't see this problem with

SharePoint is typically set to impersonate the logged on user, so you would normally be binding to AD as the browser user, not the network service (machine) account. It is possible that they disable impersonation, but that is unlikely. If you are impersonating and are using IWA auth, you

You have to follow two steps, first you need to get the details around the query and then execute the query. I know of nothing that will do that automatically for you except the ADUC plugin for exchange. This would be good for a script. So first you want to get your QB DLs and the relative
