I am trying to remove the Oracle bin directory from an NT 4 server however the Oracle dll's are in use.

The reason they are in use is because they are open to the Windows NT winlogon.exe process as a result of remote performance monitoring.

When you use Performance Monitor to monitor a computer remotely, the initiating computer attaches to the target computer's Winlogon process through RPC.

Without rebooting the server, is there any way to release these dll's from winlogon.exe?

Any utilities available to remove dll's?

Killing the winlogon.exe causes a reboot.
