I'm working on a project for our Customer Service Dept. where we want to
enable an automated log-off at then end of the day, so our backups can be
done.

Right now there are agents that will leave programs open and then the
backups create errors.

Is there a way in Active Directory, other than the scheduler for replication
to enable this? My supervisor thinks it is not possible to be done in Active
Directory. They are considering a 3rd party client-side application to force
log-off at a set time each day. They want it configured at the client-sire,
not the server.

If this is successful, we will roll out to the entire company.

Thank for any suggestions or advise you can provide.
