My pc runs vista. The Computer I am currently trying to shut down is a xp. Have a network fully set up. The compter name is \\TED. When I use the CMD:
shutdown -m \\TED -r -f
I get; TED: Access is Denied. (5)

If anyone can help me I would really appreciate it. And if you need more info just leave a reply.
 
Well well well ... it works. :thumb:


XP, with SP2, has this new "feature" that blocks "attack" from the outside. You can turn it off, but then anything may get access to your XP system. :rolleyes:

The "safe" workaround is to use another method of what you're tryin to do. :D


Network Protection

So how do I turn off this feature??
Click to expand...
You don't want to ... it would be detrimental to the health of the PC. ;)

Why not just use, from the RUN command, shutdown.exe -i ... is a wee bit easier, or so I'm told. :D
