Hi All,

Just need to initially ask if the following is possible. I'm struggling to get it working but thought I did this some time ago.

Please could a guru confirm if I can use PsShutDown as follows?

A (basic) user account on PC1 calls PsShutDown to shut down PC2.

PC2 has an admin account specifically for PsShutDown to use.

Works when local admin of PC1 sends command (this admin is not on PC2) but not when PC1 is logged in as a user.

Thanks

Keith
