How Do I Remote Shut Off a Computer Using Command Prompt?

I think i know what to type in, but every time i think i finished it just says "remote shutoff may not be supported". How do i make sure it is supported?

  2. start run>shutdown -i

    It will be supported if you have the necessary access rights on the machine you are trying to shutdown

  3. shutdown -s -m \\desktop -t 45

    use that command on your command prompt that will help you to shut down your computer remotely…where

    -sShutdown the computer

    -m Instruct a remote computer to shutdown (can be used with the restart & abort switches)

    -t xx Set a given time for shutdown, in seconds

    I think it will help you…
