  • How to use the shutdown command to stop another computer?

    I just saw the setting-m to the shutdown command and decided to give it a whirl. However, when I pointed out the computer in question, I received a message that "a required privilege is not owned by the customer.

    What should I do to be able to use my laptop to turn off my old desktop computer? Both are running XP Professional SP3.
    Sometimes, I like reading or watching streaming video on Hulu on the laptop while lying in bed, and sometimes I play music if do the first, which is stored in the form of MP3 files on the desktop (which I access via a share). Be able to turn the office without getting up would be nice, but you do not get this option with Remote Desktop.

    Here is the result, the office is "slickswintel" (he's old, and since when I went first from Mac to Windows 98SE, although it is now a double XP/98) and the laptop is "slickslaptop".
    Both machines have unprivileged called 'Slick' on them local accounts that are my accounts on the day the main day. I have a different admin account, but I only use it as needed and use runas as often I log in fact.

    What should I do to get the following to work? In spite of the passing the MCSA Exam, I never learned about this feature, so I'm not sure what I should do to make it work? It'll work on a workgroup or is it only for domains? While I could set up a domain with the copy of the server I got from Dreamspark, I really didn't need one.

    The operation completed successfully.

    As a general rule, you must have administrative privileges on the remote computer to shut down this computer.  Given that both computers have XP Pro, you are halfway there (remote users always authenticate as 'Guest' on XP Home).  The computer that you are trying to close must have "Simple file sharing" disabled because otherwise you can not authenticate to this computer as anything except the user "guest".  So try to disable Simple file sharing, make sure that your user name and password are the same on both computers and make sure you have administrative privileges on the remote computer, and then you can stop the machine with the command "shutdown".

    "How to disable the file sharing simple and how to set permissions on a shared folder in Windows XP"
      <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/307874 >

    In fact, it's easier to use the remote desktop.  Even if you do not have a "Shutdown" option in the start menu, you can always open a command prompt window (start-> Run-> "cmd") and enter the command:
    stop s f t 35
    This will give you 35 seconds to logoff this computer before its judgment (assuming that you have administrator privileges).

    You can also look in the command "psshutdown' of the PSTools Suite

  • How to use the run as command without a password in XP

    Hi there ;)
    See, me and my father have administrator accounts on a computer running Windows XP. Sometimes, I do not want to connect as myself (I want to use some of its apps while I use my own) but I still want to run commands like me (for example start firefox like me) while I'm logged into his account.

    We both don't have passwords, but when I use the Runas command either right click or the command line on my father's account, I get the error "failed to connect. The possible reasons are blank passwords." When I give myself a password, I do not get this message, but my password is empty, I get this message. How to use runas without password?

    Everyone has understood how to make this work?

    I think that you are referring to a custom function named loadXMLDoc, it is not integrated into the XML DOM. You must create the XML request script and analyze yourself or borrow one. There is nothing "built-in" who can do it for you.

  • How to use the command shutdown in vista?

    I used the shutdown command to make sure that the computer is turned off at some point in XP, but I just wanted to put my own computer to shut down after accidentally booting to Vista Home in order to download a large file while I was at work.

    I tried shutdown-s t 9000, which should have set a time limit of two and a half hours, but he gave me the help screen message.
    I saw that the main difference is that dashes had been changed to slashes, but "shutdown /s /t 9000" also failed.

    What is the correct syntax to use the command? I confirmed that 'shutdown-s-t 9000' works very well in my XP virtual machine, if that is the new syntax to accomplish the same thing with Vista? I tried "run as administrator" to the command-line nothing helps.
