Hi Guys

I have 3 networked computers (my kids) they never turn off there
computers at night. Is there software that will let me reboot or shut
down any computer on the network. Either shareware or a retail
program.
Thanks
Rick

.....but as a wise man said, "There are seldom good technological solutions
to behavioral problems" - if the house rule is, "Turn off your computer at
night" and they don't, perhaps their computer privileges ought to be taken
away until they can abide by the rules.

Another alternative may be parental control software. See this for some
thoughts on that...
