Hi,

I need to enforce an automated shutdown policy in a test section of my
domain.

I have setup a test OU to do this.

I have a message.vbs created which pops a message up asking the users
to save work, pc will be shutdown in 10 minutes.

I realise you can create custom scheduled tasks with server 2008 in a
2008 Domain.

But we have a 2003 domain here and the option in group policy is not
there.

Can I create a logon script which creates a scheduled task to shutdown
the PC at a specific time and also create a scheduled task to display
a message 10 mins before this?

Maybe I can use a delay function. I'm not too good with the batch
files. Thanks
