Does anyone know a command to reboot an NT4 box either through DOS or a batch file? My knowledge is 2000+, never touched the NT4 shite.

That requires me getting out of my chair so fuck that. I'm convinced there must be a remote shutdown command but I'll be damned if google will tell me the answer, it's too busy trying to make me get an application that will shut them down and I reckon I'd get moaned at if I went around installing things on the live network.

Have you tried copying the shutdown.exe tool from any random windows 2000/XP PC to the server?

It should work on NT based machines

Unless it says NT4 anywhere I ignore it

I'll test it out and maybe mock your google skills if it doesn't work.

Just read it and that was the first thing I tried, shutdown command isn't recognised. Not sure if the resource kit is installed on the server or not, knowing this place it probably isn't it.

I gave in and downloaded Emco's remote shutdown. Seems to have done the trick nicely.

Remotely reboot NT4 server
