schedule a restart

[BikeBoy20032004]

Hi,
Does anyone know if there's an easy way to schedule restart on a stand-alone w2k pro machine?
I seem to recall there's a resource kit app for it, but is there a better way?

Thanks

A reboot can be done with the Task Scheduler, and either the native ttshutdwn.exe, or the resource kit shutdown.exe.

There are tons of freeware utilities for this, three favorites for reboot, and shutdown:

If you just need a logoff, consider one based on idle time:

It would have been even cooler if Karen's PowerTools had not changed the URL for my first link.
