If you don't have access to the resource kit, you can write a down & dirty shutdown using InitiateSystemShutdown. The URL http://premium.microsoft.com/msdn/library/sdkdoc/shutdown_0h88.htm shows an example of this. (If you don't want to register w/ microsoft, here's the prototype // Following from microsoft's site: fResult = InitiateSystemShutdown( NULL, // shut down local computer "Click on the main window and press \ the Escape key to cancel shutdown.", // message to user 20, // time-out period FALSE, // ask user to close apps TRUE); // reboot after shutdown if (!fResult) { ErrorHandler("InitiateSystemShutdown failed."); } Hope this helps. (Wow - I could actually answer a question on this group! (hope I'm right :-) BTW, since I'm here - thanks to all for the hard work & great patches & info.) -Tony > ---------- > From: Arlindo da Silva[SMTP:arlindo AT niteroi DOT gsfc DOT nasa DOT gov] > Sent: Thursday, April 16, 1998 11:14 AM > To: gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com > Subject: reboot, anyone? > > Hi, > > I'm looking for a command line, no questions asked, "reboot" utility > for > NT.
