Are you aware of the shutdown-at-night package, which will turn off a unused machine at night if its hostname (output from uname -n) is listed as a host member of the shutdown-at-night-hosts netgroup or if the host have the file /etc/shutdown-at-night/shutdown-at-night? It can even turn it on again if the machine is supported by nvram-wakeup or from a server using wake-on-lan.
