Remote shutdown all pc's at once?

Comment:

I posted this once before with no luck - thought I would try again. I manage a Novell lab with about 25 clients, all running WinXP, and a Novell 5.7 server. When the lab closes, I would like to remotely shutdown all clients in the lab at once. I can do this in Zenworks, but only one pc at a time. Anyone have any suggestions how to do a shutdown of multiple Novell clients simultaneously? Thanks.

There is a small tools named shutdown.exe in the \windows\system32 folder. It's a command line tool, but you can start it with a paramater -i to get a graphical interface. E.g. shutdown -i Here you can add several PCs, you want to shut down. Paul
