Shutting down another computer via Remote Desktop

[Candace]

Is there a way to shutdown or restart a computer that you
are connected to via Remote Desktop? Also, is there a way
to send "CTRL-ALT-DELETE" command to a computer when you
are connected to it via Remote Desktop?

Hi

Actually, for WinXP (Pro), shutdown.exe comes with the OS...

In a command prompt, run shutdown.exe /? for help.

As for the CTRL-ALT-DEL, you ddon't need to send it, go to start > windows
security. It only appears whhen using a remote desktop connection and it
takes the place of ctrl-alt-del

And last but not least, Candace, you can run TASKMGR.EXE to open Task
Manager and log off, shutdown, etc. from there as well.
