@mkannan,

Thanks for the scripts.
For this one particularly, I was testing it out and I can’t seem to get the ‘shudown /l’ option to work.
As you instructed, simply replace the /r in the original script to change to /s for shutdown and /l for logoff.
I managed to get /s for shutdown to work but not /l.
The error that it gives you is:

Incorrect function.(1)

I’m not too sure what is wrong but I thought I should let you know.

Thanks.
