What im looking for is a way to automatically shut down 7 P.O.S. <point of sale, not the other> machines at a certain time each evening. is there a way to do this through either the server <win 2k server> or through the OS <win2k pro>? any help would be greatly appreciated.

in the resource kit, there is an app called shutdown.exe

use this app, and the scheduler to shutdown (or reboot) your systems.

hope this helps.
