Remote pc power off

#1 Post by ally »

hey puppy wizards

I run a number of 'puters currently using slacko 5.3.3 on a desktop that I use as a file server and slacko 5.4 on a lenovo t61 laptop

I have simple samba management and wake-on-lan gui installed

I can wake the desktop, yassm in to create a samba connection and download directly to the desktop

currently to shut the desktop down I tightvnc in and then power-off, is there a command line alternative or script to avoid vnc'ing, doesn't take any time but thought there may be a more elegant way.......

thanks in advance

ally

hey sunburnt

many thanks - I had seen this before, from my understanding ssh needs a client and server, puppy comes with the client but not the server

I have tried the command and you get error, connection refused

this also happens when ssh tools in 'internet'

thanks for trying though!!
