We are experiencing the same problem. It may be that this is isolated ONLY
to Windows based platforms as I've heard it works fine on Linux. Does anyone
know of a reasonable way to affect a shutdown from within Java by locating
the process ID and killing it or something like that? I know it's not likely
to be cross-platform though.
I think there should be a mechanism for elevating the status of problems
like this to the Orion team when quite a few people are experiening it.
Perhaps sending the message directly to someone on the team without cc'ing
this list?

Have you tried
java -jar admin.jar ormi://localhost/ admin <pwd> -shutdown
i.e. no port. "/" after localhost?
