Hi!

I have 3 computers. In 2 of those I have Linux + Samba installed and they are working as server machines for the 3:rd computer where I am running Win95. Now I would like to get the 2 Linux servers to shutdown when I am shutting down Windows. How do I obtain that?

What is this synchronized swimming-you can
look at some variation on failover software
(if there is somthing like this) that will
listen to the win box and then send a shutdown sig when the win box is no longer
on the net, or you could write code, a fairly
complicated shell script might work, or
you could just telnet in and shut them down
before you log off, or if you shut down the
same time create an at script in cron.daily
that runs at that time and shuts them down.
Have fun.
