Have you looked at doing it via command line using logoff?  If he has the 
username and you aren't allowing multiple sessions per user on the host that 
might get the job done.

Subject: [NTSysADM] Managing RDS 2012 sessions from Win 7

I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this, but I've been told to ask.

We run RDS 2012 (primarily for access to one published app). All of my users 
are on Win 7. Which is not a problem to connect to the RDS web interface, and 
run the app.

But now apparently we want the guy in charge of that one application to be able 
to logoff RDS sessions for users who have gotten themselves stuck. So he's been 
having to call the Help Desk to do it (and the Help Desk remote controls into 
the session broker server, and kills the connection from the list of 
connections that way).

There's no way for a Win 7 user to be able to just pull up the list of 
currently active RDS sessions, and log someone off, is there? Win 7 doesn't 
have that capability, it has to be Win 8/10? I can't install a console on his 
workstation, and point it at the RDS Connection Server, and have him be able to 
manage sessions, correct?

(as an aside, if anyone has any ideas on how we can get this guy to do his own 
session logoffs, I'm all ears ...)
