Question : How to Temporarily Disable Terminal Server Client Logons

Hello,

We have a Terminal Server running on Windows Server 2003 R2 x64 Standard Edition. We're planning to do some maintenance work on the server. We would like to prevent clients (users) temporarily to log-on into the server at the specified time?

The expected downtime will be around 2 hours. Is there anyway to display the maintenance message to the user when he(she) tries to login into the server at that time?

Any further help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
