Re-booting Windows machine from Linux box

Is there any simple way of re-booting a Windows-2000 machine
over a LAN from a Linux machine?

Hi Timothy

The easiest way would be to install rdesktop (http://www.rdesktop.org/) on
the linux
box (very fast compared to any vnc), and then just hit the start menu and
reboot.

Aonther soulution would be:
1. Install OpenSSH for Windows
(I reccomend this one
http://lexa.mckenna.edu/sshwindows/download/releases/ )
2. Download this vbs file:

3. Change EWX_LOGOFF to EWX_REBOOT in the vbs file
3. Connect via ssh, and type "cscript logoff_vbs" to reboot the computer.

Regards,

Øyvind Henriksen
