The process seems logical. Obviously the "55555" password would be a bit more complex in production?!?!?!

I took a long rest and came back to it... I have it sorta working. Im going to lay it out and hopefully everyone will understand and comment: pcreboot.cmd: @echo off if "%~1"=="" exit 0 if not exist "%~1" exit 0 set /a maxfileSize=2048 if /i %~z1 GTR %maxfileSize% exit 0 grep "55555" %~1 if not %ERRORLEVEL%==0 exit 0 shutdown.exe \\computername /R /T:05 /C exit 0 filters.in.tab: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"[tab]"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"[tab]"0.0.0.0/0"[tab] 0.0.0.0/0"[tab]"reboot.tab" /filters/reboot.tab file: "cmd.exe /c D:\Xmail\xmail_filters\pcreboot.cmd"[tab]"@@FILE"[tab]"@@RCPT" All of that works if I replace the shutdown line with net send. I tested it and if I use the netsend command all goes well, then I want to run the actual command of shutdown and it never does anything. I checked the event viewer in win2k and get this: The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( XMail ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: Filter error (-5): Sender = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" Recipient = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" Filter = "cmd.exe /c D:\Xmail\xmail_filters\pcreboot.cmd" The whole reason for this is that sometimes one of our database servers needs to be rebooted and when I am in the office I do it. In the event that I am not in the office I thought it would be a good idea to have a way to reboot it from my cellphone or have one user in the office be able to email to it and have it reboot. This is easier to me than granting a certain user in the office server admin rights.
