I have client that now has a number of PC's running an automated data collection
process and updating the 400 via ODBC. We need to block access for an a short
period of time once each day. The old way they used was via an APPC conenction
and they would just end the job and vary off the devices.

I'm thinking
1. Disable the usrprf being used but that won't running processes.
2. Ending QSERVER sbs since ODBC is the only thing currently using it.
3. ??

Any other ideas?

Thanks
