Hi,

I'm pretty sure that you cannot do this without writing a new program under
NT 4.0. The next version of NT will support the execution of programs
during logout.

According to some Microsoft documentation, under NT 4.0, once the shutdown
process is initiated, no new processes can be started. The only way I have
figured out how to perform a kdestroy during shutdown would be to use a
program that gets loaded during login. The program would do nothing until
it recieves the shutdown message, then it would perform a kdestroy. I
haven't written this. Any volunteers?

Paul
