shutdown a machine from a next one

[csvideo]

is it possible to shutdown a computer from a next computer when there are both connected to the same network?

1) Setup a "listener" application on the remote machine, so when it receives the instruction, it executes the Shutdown process locally.

The following will require administrative privledges.

2) Use the Shutdown.exe: Remote Shutdown Utility that comes in the Win2K Prof. resource kit.

3) Use the free PsShutdown utility from
