Task Manager - allowing user to end their own process

[Guest tnt]

Guys,

 

We have locked most of the stuff users can do on the terminal server

environment, i.e. disallowing right-cling on task bar.

 

I have occasionally had users called because the application they run froze

on them. Can I allow the user to right click the task manager and end their

own process and not others?

Hi,

 

By default users will only see their own processes in task

manager and can end them if necessary. Since you disabled

right-click on taskbar they will need to use Ctrl-Alt-End to

access task manager. You may want to remove the Run

command so that they will not have that option.

 

If the users are seeing more than just their own processes

then they either have too much rights or their registry has

the taskman flag set for Show processes from all users.

Re: Task Manager - allowing user to end their own process

 

TP,

 

Thanks for the reply. I remember reading something about the default user

being able to end their own tasks.

 

Is there anyway I can hide hide "processes tab" on the task manager?

 

By the way, when you do Ctrl-Alt-End, don't you get the task manager locally

and not the one that is opened from your terminal session ( I am using RDP

and not the actual terminal hardware -dumb termina).

 

Thanks,

Tntl

I do not know of a way to hide the processes tab.

 

Ctrl-Alt-End brings up the Windows Security dialog box

in your Remote session.

Optionally you can also use the following TS command line tools:

qprocess.exe

tskill.exe
