My Warp 4(FP15) will not shut down using the right-click menu option with the mouse over the desktop or the taskbar icon.

I need a way to remotely reboot the system via Desktop on Call. Some time ago in the Connectix VPC forum I was given a DOS command line. But before I had written it down, MS stopped and wiped the whole forum.

Does anybody know the reboot command?

how about:

shutdown
restart

or anything like that.

Exit is for the command window.

No, from what I remember it was a bit more convoluted than that.

The command is SETBOOT /IBD:C: (to reboot from drive C) and must be run from a full screen DOS window.
