Hi Ravi,

Do you have any idea how to perform such triigers ?
Every help is appreciated.

I went to this webpage

http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/360649

Isn't it supposed to run on the network and close the connected
machine.

Every help is appreciate,

That code uses the windows libraries on the machine it is run on to 
generate a request to the networked machine to shutdown. The code 
executes locally and sends the request over the network.

If you have some way of remotely running programs on the windows 
machine(ssh, telnet, etc.), you might try pstools:

specifically, psshutdown.

remotely.

Every help is appreciated.

Re: cross platform libraries

Not much to it. Just follow the SimpleXMLRPCServer example from Python
docs and register your shutdown function. Call it using xmlrpclib
remotely.

Actually, I prefer the telnet method below. Simple and straight forward.

No! That's not the way things work. Such code needs to run locally (in
this case, Windows). You can run this program as a daemon on Windows
