VPNed and RDCed in to my work computer, and I go to shut it down.   I just submitted a big changelist and my work computer has been on for at least a week.   Time to give it a break/reboot.   You know how touchy windows gets when it doesn’t get its beauty sleep.

Lo and behold, the shutdown menu when accessing the computer via RDC is replaced with “Disconnect”.   You can’t shut down the computer.

After poking around somemore trying to find a way to turn the computer off or reboot it.   I give up and do it the “hard” way.

Kill “lsass.exe”; the computer pops up a nifty dialog saying that “lsass.exe died unexpededly, rebooting in 60 seconds.”  It even gives you a countdown, which is great in a Bond villian sort of way.
