Remote shutdown ... of Win95

2001-03-12 Thread piotr_tarnowski
Hi, I have POTATO firewall which controls UPS status and want to shutdown all machines on power failure. I use UPSD in client mode for UN*X workstations but I also have one running M$Win95... Any ideas how can I shutdown Windows95 remotely from Linux ? Best regards, Piotr Tarnowski
