I'm having trouble getting my domain users to log off in the evenings.

Is there a way via GPO to log off Domain users at a specified time during the day? I know it's possible to do this after a specified time of inactivity, but that won't work for me.

any help is appreciated.

Hi mlchris2,
IS there ever a time where users are logged in after normal office hours, via remote access etc for example?
If not, one way of doing this would be toset the logon hours aginst their AD user object, and then you can use group policy to force the user logoff when logon time expires. To do that, open domain group policy, locate Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Options

"Automatically log off users when logon time expires"

Hope this helps

Paul
