Viewing or Disconnecting User Sessions

In the Computer Properties dialog box, you can click on buttons to view users, shares, current remote connections, replication import and export servers, and to send administrative alerts.

Click on the Users button in the Computer Properties dialog box to view all users connected (over the network) to the computer and the resources opened by a selected user. To display the User Sessions dialog box, double-click on a computer name in the Server Manager window and then click on Users.

In the User Sessions dialog box, you can disconnect individual or multiple users.
