    You could use the Winsock Control to send Data from 1 PC to Another over a TCP/IP Network. To Send commands, you would need to create your own set of Command Lines which the Recieving Program will be able to Interpret, eg.

    If the Source PC sends "SHUTDOWN" via the Winsock, the Destination should recognize this as a Valid command and run some code to Shutdown that PC.
