How do you do that with 200 computers. Any way to create this scheduled task via a snapin? Or are there alternative solutions?

EDIT: I figured it out myself. Suppose that you want to shut down the computers at midnight every day. Here’s how you do it:

  1. Create a .bat file with the following content:
    schtasks /create /tn “shutdown_0000” /tr “c:\windows\system32\shutdown -s -f -t 00” /sc daily /st 00:00 /ru “System”

  2. Create a snapin with the .bat file you just created.

  3. Deploy the snapin to all your computers.

I should probably warn you… Green Fog is getting removed in 0.33

The command you want to put in your task is :
[code]
c:\windows\system32\shutdown -s -f -t 00
[/code]
