I'm trying to lock all computers in my house - I checked the psshutdown option with the -l flag, but although the shutdown is working, the lock isn't working at all - it's writing that the machine is locked, but it's not actually locked. I also tried with psexec \\192.168.14.100 -s -u {username} -p {password} c:\1.bat - and there I put the rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation (the file is working locally) - but it's writing as if it succeeded, but the windows machine isn't locked.

Any ideas? (by using the previous programs - or any new ones).

    Welcome to superuser.com. As you indicate that the rundll32.exe bat file works locally, you need to find out : why it doesn't work when using it via a remote machine using psexec. Maybe this ( stackoverflow.com/questions/37151412/… ) can show you some things to check? and let us know if the problem remains afterwards

  • @OlivierDulac, thanks for answering. Sadly, this is not the problem. As I said, shutdown (without the -L flag) is working remotely. The only problem is with locking.
