[RDP] Finding and logging people off from command line

Thanks to Tony for this!

Obviously, you can use the Terminal Services Manager (now the Remote Desktop Services Manager) to find people and log them off.  This is a command line way to do the same thing.  Easier, possibly, and doesn't (to my knowledge) require the Manager pack be downloaded & installed.

To list users:
query session /server:yourservernamehere

To kick off users:
RESET SESSION 1 /SERVER:yourservernamehere
or
rwinsta /SERVER:yourservernamehere 1

(replace 1 with whatever the ID is in the results from the QUERY)
