How To Remotely Shut Down Windows XP Computers From A Linux Server
Author: BeauSanders • Tags: linux • Comments: 5How To Remotely Shut Down Windows XP Computers From A Linux Server As a budget cutback, our school administrators asked us to shutdown all non-essential classroom computers at night to save electricity. I teach Linux in a classroom that has a Dell Poweredge 2850 Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL5) server and 29 Dell Optiplex 745 student lab computers running Microsoft Windows XP SP3 as the host operating system and VMWare Server to provide virtual Linux machines for our classes.
