Use PsShutdown tool / utility from sysinternals, see my tutorial for more info:

Have a look at the "shutdown.exe" command. Also does reboots, etc.

I normally just open up a command prompt and type: shutdown /?
It's in the system32 folder.
Windows 2000 has a similar tool: tsshutdn.exe

Default Great Idea for easy task

just create a batch file and put the following command

Shutdown -r -f -t 0 (This is for local computer)

for network computer

Shutdown -r -f -t 0 -m \\<ipaddress>

-r = restart
-s = shutdown
-f = forcily
-t = time in seconds
-m = remote computer

I think this only works under Windows XP / 2000 / 2003 server. It will not work under old version of windows like win95
