You can use PMTools to reset a port from the command line:

pmcommand -h [Your PM] -p [Your Password] "Reset Sxxx"

where xxx is the port number.

I made a number of scripts to do this with PMTools on NT:

Ex:
Kickuser.cmd
------8<------
@ECHO OFF
CALL PMCOMMAND -h %1 -p %2 "Reset S%3"

And to use it I would do:

C:\>kickuser pm3-1 PASSWORD 3

to reset port S3 on PM3-1.

With a little work you can do wonders with PMTools.
