The NET Command is used to manage open files and user sessions as follows:
Display all the open shared files on a server and the lock-id
NET FILE
Close a shared file (disconnect other users and remove file locks)
NET FILE id /CLOSE
List all sessions connected to this machine:
NET SESSION
or
NET SESSION | Find "\\"
List sessions from a given machine
NET SESSION \\ComputerName
Disconnect all sessions connected to this machine
NET SESSION /DELETE
Disconnect all sessions connected to this machine (without any prompts)
NET SESSION /DELETE /y
Disconnect sessions from a given machine
NET SESSION \\ComputerName /DELETE
Notes:
NET SESSION displays incoming connections only, in other words it must be run
on the machine that is acting as the server.
To create file shares the SERVER service must be running, which in turn requires 'File and Print Sharing' to be installed.
