Remote PC shutdown tools - AD and Time sync

[sycho666]

Hi All,

 

I was wondering if anybody has any idea on some software that I can use to remotely shut down pc's based on a time schedule eg, all pc's in school shut down at 730 at night. Is there any tools that will pull names from active directory, or link in to the interface.

I have used a command line version of a tool, using a ini file with the pc names in, however our pc names sometimes change, eg after a reclone with ghost. plus we have over 500 machines, and it took a while to go through the file, and would sometimes fail.

 

thank in advance for the replies
