open a secure shell to the PC you want to close down, and then type the shutdown command ;)

just unplug his comp from the wall :)

EURUZZz 13 Oct 2009, 13:35
ssh root@[ip aadress]
pkill -u user
won't shut down but will log him off instantly!

worked like a charm, anything else like disabling his mouse or smth
