mad_dog369 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 (edited) I was wondering if there was a way to shutdown several pc's on a network at the same time, because i take care of about 40 pc's and at the end of the day someone has to turn them all off. so i was hoping there was an easyer way, preferably with batch files (reason being, becasue i'm used to using them and would be easyer).

rstainforth Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Hi Mad Dog,The windows administrators automation toolkit has some really handy scripts for performing tasks such as this for the network administrator, including one to shutdown or restart computers. If you like, drop me a pm, and i can send you the script over for you to cut/paste and modify Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
