Actually that was probably me that you are referring to, but the problem
with that is that we have to reboot our servers on a regular basis and
sometimes users don't log off so you're server never reboots in that
scenario. We have actually purchased a product from WM Software that we are
very happy with to reboot our servers. It does what most scripts like that
do and much more, and is very cheap. It is called Shutdown Plus Rolling
Restart. The problem is not the reboot script or application, it is that
some requests are just plain not doable and that we cater way too much to
our user community.

I hear you. It's usually not up to me either. I forgot to add that I thought
I saw a post here a while back where a guy had an "intelligent" reboot
script that waited until there were no users on the server and then
rebooted. If anyone remembers that, please post it. If not, I may bang one
out today if I have some time and feel motivated.

I wish it were up to me. I'm just the lowly admin, but yes, it is true what
you say here and I agree with you fully. We as a company seem to have no
problem saying, "figure out how we can make things easier for the users
admin, even if it will make you scream and bang your head against the wall
for two weeks."
I need a vacation.
