Logoff
Logs off a user from a session and deletes the session from the server.
Syntax
logoff [{SessionID|SessionName}] [/server:ServerName] [/v]
Parameters
SessionID : Specifies the numeric ID which identifies the session to the server.
SessionName : Specifies the name of the session.
/server: ServerName : Specifies the terminal server containing the session whose user you want to log off. If unspecified, the server on which you are currently active is used.
/v : Displays information about the actions being performed.
/? : Displays help at the command prompt.
Remarks
-
You can always log off from the session to which you are currently logged on. You must, however, have Full Control permission to log off users from other sessions.
-
Logging off a user from a session without warning can result in loss of data at the user's session. You should send a message to the user using the msg command to warn the user before taking this action.
-
If no ID or name for the session is specified, logoff logs off the user from the current session. If you specify a session name, it must be an active one.
-
When you log off a user, all processes end and the session is deleted from the server.
-
You cannot log off a user from the console session.
Examples
To log off a user from the current session, type:
logoff
To log off a user from a session using the session's ID, for example session 12, type:
logoff 12
To log off a user from a session using the name of the session and server, for example session TERM04 on server WF12, type:
logoff TERM04 /server:WF12
