Not SSH, but from a remote windows machine authenticated with admin rights on the target machine run

shutdown -s -f -m \\KidsComputer -t 60 -c "Time for bed kids"

That will shut the computer down in 60 seconds with the message of "Time for bed kids" with the forced shutdown of unresponsive programs. See: http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/shutdown.mspx?mfr=true for documentation. Aaron Z

Yes, because my house totally has an Active Directory server.

Comment From the perspective of a student (Score 0) 1324

I am not a home schooler, and I never have been, but I am in a [public] school and can tell you what we kids think. We've had a lot of kids transfer from home to public schools, and they get along fine, beyond the normal "I don't know anyone" of new students. Now, you couldn't tell that they were home schooled at all, unless you asked them. However, there is one home schooler that we know from scouts, etc. (he's my neighbor). He is the stereotype. He's 14, but still doesn't know a lot of social things, mainly how to detect immoral people and immoral activities. He's a very vocal Christian. His family has 7 kids (6 daughters younger than him) and homeschools because they can't afford private school. 90% of cases work well, but people like this is why there are sterotypes. Man, this post got long.

Obviously, if you try an OS within 2-3 days after release, there's going to be somebody with problems. There are tons of people who it works fine, so they didn't bother to post anywhere. For me, the upgrade worked perfectly, and now my sound card works.
