Need help ASAP! Program to reboot someone's comp?
To cut a long story short I need something I can send to someone, and when they open it, it reboots their comp. I made a progam that did this in Autoit, but now I redownlaoded autoit, and none of the functions work it seems. Need this ASAP!
*Edit* I made my own. That was stinky.. if anyone needs a guaranteed comp rebooter file, let me know and I'll send it over AIM only. Last edited by Munku; 05-19-2004 at 07:30 PM. |

Well, the simplest plan is a batch file or something that simply calls "shutdown" with the appropriate command line options on a Win2k/XP box.
Failing that, you could always do something more esoteric like writing a C/C++ app that calls the system API for rebooting.

For Win2k, there is a shutdown exe program that's included in the Resource Kit, might be able to do what you want.
There's also psShutdown from Sysinternals.com which wil do the same thing.

Reboot script, copy the following into notepad or something and save it as a .vbs file. This will reboot a machine when executed.
Code:
' Copyright (c) 1997-1999 Microsoft Corporation
'***************************************************************************
'
' WMI Sample Script - System reboot (VBScript)
'
' Invokes the Reboot method of the Win32_OperatingSystem class
' NOTE: You must have the Shutdown privilege to successfully invoke the Shutdown method
'
'***************************************************************************
Set OpSysSet = GetObject("winmgmts:{(Shutdown)}//./root/cimv2").ExecQuery("select * from Win32_OperatingSystem where Primary=true")
for each OpSys in OpSysSet
OpSys.Reboot()
next

Go to SysInternals web site and download the PSTools. There is a freeware tool called "psshutdown" that can be used from the CLI.
