[Samba] Net rpc shutdown

[Mark Lidstone]

Hi all,

I'm trying to make a script that will shut down a couple of Windows
boxes from a Linux machine with Samba.

If I use "net rpc shutdown -I <windows-ip> -U administrator" it works
fine, except that I get prompted for the password.  After looking
through "man net" I can't seem to find a way to include the password (I
tried "-U administrator%password" but got "[2004/08/10 16:45:58, 0]
utils/net_rpc.c:rpc_shutdown_internals(2766) - Shutdown of remote
machine failed" back).

Am I missing a switch?
