Have you tried the psshutdown (command line) prompt from the excellent "pstools" utilities from www.sysinternals.com? (Free) Help below: usage: psshutdown [\\computer[,computer[,...] | @file [-u username [-p password]]] -s|-r|-h|-d|-k|-a|-l|-o [-f] [-c] [-n s] [-t nn|h:m] [-e [u|p]:xx:yy] [-m "message"] computer Run the command on the computer or computers specified. If you omit the computer name the command runs on the local system and if you enter a computer name of \\* then the command runs on all computers in the current domain. @file Execute the command on each of the computers listed in the file. -u Specifies optional user name for login to remote computer -p Specifies optional password for user name. If you omit this you will be prompted to enter a hidden password. -a Aborts a shutdown (only possible while a countdown is in progress) -c Allow the shutdown to be aborted by the interactive user -e Shutdown reason code. Specify 'u' for user reason codes and 'p' for planned shutdown reason codes. xx is the major reason code (must be less than 256) yy is the minor reason code (must be less than 65536) -f Forces all running applications to exit during the shutdown instead of giving them a chance to gracefully save their data -h Hibernate the computer -k Poweroff the computer (reboot if poweroff is not supported -l Lock the computer -m This option lets you specify a message to display to logged-on users when a shutdown countdown commences -n Specifies timeout in seconds connecting to remote computers -o Logoff the console user -r Reboot after shutdown -s Shutdown without poweroff -t Specifies the countdown in seconds until the shutdown (default: 20 seconds) or the time of shutdown in 24 hour notation -v Display message for the specified number of seconds before the shutdown. If you omit this parameter the shutdown notification dialog displays and specifying a value of 0 omits the dialog.
