I would like to be able to shut down my Gateway computer on my LAN remotely from my laptop. Both computers are running windows 98se, and the laptop will soon be running XP... but the gateway is too slow for XP, so it will always run Windows 98se.

Is there some program or something i can use to shut down the gateway?

Try this one:

Here's a list of ones, but many of them don't offer the remote shutdown capability.

Hope that helps.

Good links, George. My thought is what about telnetting into the gateway & using the shutdown switch at the command line. Either way, good resources you've provided!
