Shutdown PC's on Network
I am trying to work on shutting down all the Networked PC say at 10pm via SMS 2003, but the problem I would face is that if I set a expiry end date then it would not re-occur the next day right?
Therefore my objective is to shutdown PC's every night say at 10pm and it stops advertising at 6am - so when a user come sin the morning it is still not advertising and their PC will not shut down.
Can anyone help or advise how I can get round this please?
Greatly Appreciated.

If this were me, I'd set up an admin workstation somewhere and simply have a script walk the domain and run PSExec against the workstations, executing SHUTDOWN.EXE. IIRC, there's an excellent example on http://cwashington.netreach.net
