The function I'd need is the ExitWindowsEx winapi function. I don't

If you want to help me, there are the links to the initial messages of 
my problem:

One mistake is in that postings: The shutdown method provided in w2k 
works if the local and the remote user have the same usernames and 
passwords, it is not requrired that they are in the same domain.
