PC_LOAD_LETTER Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Shamelessly ripped from a google cached EE answerHave a list of computers? This will do it..For /f %%a in (C:\Computers.txt) do schtasks /s %%a /create /ru system /sc daily /st 20:00:00 /tn Shutdown /tr "shutdown -s -f -t 10"It'll loop through all systems setting up a scheduled task to shut them down at 8pmthat will FORCE a shutdown at the time specified regardless of if the user is using the PC or not. making the PCs shutdown when idle is a little harder.

cluberti Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 You could also consider forcing the use of a screensaver policy, and use a shutdown screensaver, or set it to run as a scheduled task at a specified time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcemanND Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Or create OU's for each grouping of computers and apply separate policies to each OU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
