Howdy all,

I have a problem and can't seem to find a solution other than pulling the network plug and I would like another altenative. I have tried making the file read only, but that did't work either. I need to be able to kill the program accross the network for any user with that app currently running. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I also, tried using netwatch but I've run into connection problems and locking up with that.

thanks again,
tommy19
 
If you want to remotely kill processes then you can do the following:

1. Use Server manager
2. Use a third party tool called PSservice from SysInternals:


Run a command line to kill any processes on remote machines.You can include it in batch files if needed.

Hope this helps.
