Note that the GPO setting for the command prompt can allow scripts to execute
(it's a suboption). Also picked up this tidbit somewhere along the way:
How to Enable or Disable Client Logons in the Registry
Disable logons
X86: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
X64: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
Add a REG_SZ value called WinStationsDisabled and set the value to 1.
Enable logons
Change the WinStationsDisabled value to 0.

Doug,
I've see this too. When someone sets the GPO you can no longer use the command
line to disable logins.
Strangely, if you're using Citrix the CMC can still disable them on a per
server basis. I wish I knew what trick they use.
