How can I make my vb.net program log off a user?
I just quickly hacked some code to shutdown Win2K into logoff a user. You call ExitWindowsEx after you adjust privileges.
This logs a user off a local machine.
This is just api calls in VB 6.0 - not .NET, but you should be able to translate the calls back to .NET framework.

That's pretty complex, is there a different way?
I know this's been resolved but may others can get benefit too.Quote:
