Don't think you can do it with a browser, but you can telnet localhost 8005 and type "SHUTDOWN" and it will bring down tomcat, unless you change the server.xml.

Can you shutdown the machine by typing http://localhost:8005 in the browser? I thought this was disabled in the Tomcat version 4 onwards?

Someone who gains, or already has access to the box can shut it down the other way.
