Have you tried the shutdown command without launching cmd? This could also be a permissions thing if you are running as a service. By default the service will run as a non-priviliged user which you'd have to change in order to reboot.

Hi, Actually, I was assuming this was a simple example of a runitme call. My real goal is to allow a privelidged user to re-boot the server with the following code: runtime.exec("cmd.exe /C shutdown -r -f -m \\myPC -t 50"); I would also like to call a couple of batch files. These attempts have met with the same (nothing doing) response. Cheers Andy _________________________________________________________________ It's fast, it's easy and it's free.
