Samba3 has a new command: net, it has shutdown support ( or so the man page says),but it can't run remote commands on the remote machine. I don't know how to use it, I read the man, but it didn't work for me. You can achieve some of the functionality using samba domain login scripts, ssh + shutdown from cygwin and even run vnc over ssh ( If you have win2K+). You can even set up secure automatic scripts if you use ssh keys. It's not as fancy as Novell or Win SMS but it works.
