I run a computer lab on a college campus. At times I have to reboot all the computers for them to work properly. Can anyone help me do this remotely from a computer on the network. I have the MAC & IP address as well as alot of other info for all the computers on the network, I just need to know where to go from there.

Thanks
 
yup, make a batch file, name it what you want, input the following below, change x's to the computer name of the remote machines, and repeat the shutdown command line for each machine, then just run the batch file. :)


@echo off
shutdown -m \\xxxxxxx -r -f
exit
 
on a windows based network, you'd prob need to be a domain admin...

But you should be able to do it from your desktop if you are...
 
it worked man! Thank you very much! I was trying to do it from my notebook but I wasn't on the subnet or whatever. I tried it on one of the local machines with a administrator login and it worked fine.

Thank you much!
 
I think Remote Access Solutions will be useful to people like you... why not try some remote access products...

That will help you to access the remote systems where ever you are.. one such product is RemotePC ... using that you can do anthing from accessing / transferring data.. run applications and all even you can shutdown or restart the remote computer ... just try it..
