Tim,
I have had mixed success using Win32::InitiateSystemShutdown, it didn't work
effectivley for mixed service packs therefore I used SHUTDOWN.EXE from the Winnt
Res Kit which has several options:
Usage: SHUTDOWN [/?] [\\Computer] [/L] [/A] [/R] [/T:xx] ["Msg"] [/Y] [/C]
/? Shows this screen.
\\Computer Specifies a remote computer to shutdown.
/L Specifies a local shutdown.
/A Abortes a systemshutdown. This is only possible during the
timeout period.If this switch is used, all other are ignored.
/R Specifies that the machine should reboot after shutdown.
/T:xx Sets the timer for system shutdown in seconds.[20 sec. default]
"Msg" Specifies an additional message
/Y Answer all following questinons with yes
/C Forces running applications to close.
ATTENTION: If you use the /C parameter NT ignores the
applications option to save data which may
have changed. You will see no File-Save dialog
box, because NT will force the application to
close. This will result in a loss of all data.
not previously saved !!!
$shutdown="C:\\SHUTDOWN.EXE /L /R /T:01 /Y /C";
`$shutdown`;

Tim,
The Win32 module has
Win32::InitiateSystemShutdown(MACHINE, MESSAGE, TIMEOUT, FORCECLOSE,
REBOOT)
I haven't come across modules which do of the other things.

Are there any Win32::GUI options to to shutdown, reboot, logoff the current
user and/or lock the screen using perl on NT or 2000?
Thanks,
