* If you want to shutdown a Windows machine from another Windows machine: Use something like "shutdown /s /m \\computername" (For this you need an Admin account under a domain controller setup). Check "shutdown /?" for the various options. * If you want to shutdown a Windows machine from Ubuntu: Install samba-common binaries and use the "net" tool to issue a shutdown command. See http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/manpages-3/net.8.html#id2533232 * If you want to shutdown a Ubuntu machine from Windows: Install openssh-server in Ubuntu. Using putty from Windows, SSH to the Ubuntu machine and issue a shutdown. It's not clear what you want to do or why you want to do it. You may even login to your windows machine through a remote desktop connection (through the rdp client in Windows or rdesktop in linux), and get to the shutdown menu with CTRL+ALT+END.
