If logged on - Batch file?

[FN-GM]

Hi,

 

I want to make a batch file that will run one command if the computer is logged on and a different one if its logged off.

 

Any thoughts please?

 

Thanks

What does the command need to do?

 

you could use a logon and logoff script though!

[FN-GM]

It needs to be a scheduled task.

 

Its so if a machine has been left logged on the machine gets a forced reboot. If it has been left logged off it shutdown. Our SCCM installs software when the machine is left logged off. But people leave them logged on. Its so i can get the software installed.

Have a read of Log Off user when idle session exceed 8 hours by GPO

 

Cheers

This vbscript will do it:

 

strComputer = "."

Set objWMI = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

Set colSessions = objWMI.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_LogonSession WHERE LogonType = 2")

strCmd = ""

If colSessions.Count = 0 Then 
' No interactive users found
strCmd = "shutdown /s /t 0 /f"
Else 
' Interactive users found
strCmd = "shutdown /r /t 0 /f"
End If

objShell.Run strCmd

you can deploy scheduled tasks using client side extensions.

im not asking for a script to deploy a sheduled task

[chazzy2501]

A scheduled task can run shutdown.exe (with switches) based on certain criteria! e.g. if the computer is in use, on battery, if the PC is asleep. seems perfect.

 

I use this to ensure all PCs shutdown at 6PM if they're logged in, logged in and asleep, or just asleep and no logged in.

Just a thought, cant you use a batch to check the value of %username%, if it's blank then it's logged off I would presume?

%USERNAME% will return the username of the account used to run the task and will never be blank.

Thanks @ChrisMiles i am going to give this a bash. Also is it possible to stick a line in so if a machine is on a particular IP range to just exit. I am thinking of doing it for machines that are currently being worked on in our workshop so they dont automatically shutdown at night. Thanks
