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

 -c

 shutdown reason codes.

 -f
Forces all running applications to exit during the shutdown instead of giving
 them a chance to gracefully save their data
 
 
 -h

 -r

 the time of shutdown in 24 hour notation

 omit this parameter the shutdown notification dialog displays and specifying a
 value of 0 omits the dialog.
