Mass reboot
Posted by Steve on March 6th, 2004


Is there a way to do a mass reboot in Windows 2000 server
to Windows XP machines. We do system updates every other
Tuesday and would like to reboot every PC in the domain on
these days just in case we roll out some updates.

You can setup a scheduled job on the workstations (using Task Scheduler,
for example) and issue the shutdown.exe command. I think it's now part
of XP. If it's not, get it from the Resource Kit.

Thanks. Problem is, the guy who was here before me lost
the resource kit CD. Any place else I can get it?

I'm pretty sure it's included with XP now. Type shutdown /? from a
command prompt.
