Hmmm, allow me to suggest an answer to my own question. It may not be the most elegant of ways, but... -> Do not push, but poll: In the client chroot, install a cron job that runs every minute and monitors a file on the server (let's say: /var/run/shutdownclients). As soon as this file appears, shutdown the client. This way you could trigger shutdown of all connected clients within a minute. There may be better ways of doing it, though.
