That's the way we are doing it. For this to work, you need to install the ssh server in the client chroot, set up a root account und list root's ssh fingerprint in the authorized-keys file.
Once set up, this works fine. We use it every evening to shut down our approx. 200 clients. One problem though: If the client has crashed (e.g., lost network connection, server has been shut down), it cannot be reached via ssh. Then there is only one option: walk over and hit the power button. Rüdiger Am 10.10.2012 18:52, schrieb Lance Levsen: > > What about a passwordless login setup in the chroot for root.
