TITLE   :IIS 5.1: Reboot of WinXP Pro Shuts Down Computer Without Warning
PRODUCT :Internet Information Server
PROD/VER::
OPER/SYS:
KEYWORDS:

======================================================================
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Internet Information Services version 5.1 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

In the Microsoft Windows XP Professional environment, if you configure the
server in a workgroup, you can use the Fast User Switching feature. This permits
multiple simultaneous users to be logged on to the computer locally. However, if
multiple users are simultaneously logged on to the computer with Fast User
Switching, and one user reboots the server by using reboot %Servername% in the
Internet Information Services (IIS) Microsoft Management Console (MMC), the
operating system reboots the computer without displaying a warning that another
user is logged on.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Internet Information Services
version 5.1.
