Assuming by "login user" you mean "perform interactive logon to console"
this is impossible.

You can log the user off by using psshutdown -r from www.sysinternals.com.
This will simply reboot the machine.
Another alternative is to call WTSLogoffSession for all sessions on the
target machine.

In both cases the login would have to be done manually by the user himself.
