Re: How to shutdown remote pc from DOS?

It has been brought to my attention that there is an error in teh programming for my previous post. This version seems to work a bit better:

Dim objShell, strComputer, strInput
Dim strShutdown

Do
strComputer = (InputBox(" ComputerName to shutdown", "Computer Name"))
If strComputer <> "" Then
strInput = True
End if
Loop until strInput = True

strShutdown = "shutdown -r -t 0 -f -m \\" & strComputer

set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

objShell.Run strShutdown

Wscript.Quit

thanks,
Brandon

Try this VBScipt. Copy and paste the below text in to notepad. then save it with the extension .vbs. Then when you double click it, it should give you an input box. What ever IP or PC name you enter there will be shut down!:

Sub RebootComputer( strServer )
Set objOSSet = GetObject("winmgmts:{(RemoteShutdown)}//" & strServer & "/root/cimv2").ExecQuery("select * from Win32_OperatingSystem where Primary=true")

For each objOS in objOSSet
objOS.Reboot()
Next
End Sub

' *************************************************************
' Main
' **************************************************************
Dim strComputer
Do
strComputer = inputbox( "Please enter the name of the computer you want to reboot", "Input" )
Loop until strComputer <> ""

RebootComputer( strComputer )

WScript.Echo( "Computer " & strComputer & " rebooted" )
