I have seen exactly the same problem. In our case we had to shut down all
services, stop any running programs, then ctrl-alt-del and Logoff (or shut
down).

Our server was NT4 PDC, print server, SP6a, security rollup patch.

Subject: Can't log off administrator account

Hello beautiful people!

I am having a problem with a Windows 2000 Server box. We can't
seem to log off the administrator account.

At first I thought it might have been defined in the "Domain Security
Policy" or "Domain Controller Security Policy" but I didn't seem to
find anything in either of those that would have any bearing on
wheather the Administrator account can log off or not. We have
this box setup as a Domain Controller and acts as a File Server
and Print Server.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Matt Hemingway
