Several neat utilities that are sprinkled throughout this chapter, and some that I didn’t cover in detail, enable you to perform much of the functionality you find in the graphical management interfaces for Terminal Services from the command-line.

Change logon

Enables logons (using the /enable switch) or disables logons (using the /disable switch) to a specific server. Use /query to find out what mode a machine is currently in.

Change port

Use /L to clean every local profile, /I to prompt you before cleaning each profile, and /V to display each action the program has taken.
