    Resolved [RESOLVED] Shutdown a remote PC

    Hey! So I'm here with another question:

    Is there any way to turn off a remote pc that's not by using

    Code:
    shutdown /s /m \\computer name etc...
    I just want to turn off the server computer at night from my laptop. Is it possible to make the program check for pings and then shutdown? Or is there an easier way? (Maybe if I'm not on the local network send over a "signal"(?) to the pc so that it'll shut down..?)

    Thanks again!

    EDIT:

    Read 3rd post for a brief explanation.
