I'm not sure if I understand the steps entirely with this option...

1) Install PsTools (which includes PsLoggedon) from
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/s.../bb896649.aspx

2) In cmd, key in all that that you entered...
@echo off "c:\RestrictedFolder\psloggedon.exe" | find /i "xxx" || goto :eof
shutdown.exe /s /f /t 3

Where "xxx" is?

???

I'm not sure where to post this, so am posting it in "general"

As a parent, I would like my children to not be able to use the computers
during certain hours of the night. There are two computers: one operates
on
XP; the other on Vista

I was looking through the User Account and Computer Management console to
see if there was a way to establish user or group policies that restricted
particular users or groups from having the ability to log on during
certain
hours of the day. However, I had no success finding anything. Is there
any
way to do this that I was not able to find? Or, would I need a separate
program to be able to make these restrictions happen?

Thanks,
Zakhary

You could create a scheduled task that runs under the System account once
every minute during the restricted hours. It would invoke the following
batch file (which you must store in a restricted location):

@echo off
"c:\RestrictedFolder\psloggedon.exe" | find /i "xxx" || goto :eof
shutdown.exe /s /f /t 3

You can get psloggedon.exe from www.sysinternals.com.
