You might try this...

Run over to www.p1.com and get a demo copy of Phantom for Windows
(requires a little practice to learn, but not really much). Then install
reskit for NT (if you already haven't), and look at shutgui. 

With Phantom, you can schedule a job to just login into a machine (NT
server) w/a net use command at the NT shell, and then run shutgui. The
clicking will be done for you with Phantom. It's just a script. You can
reboot remote machines.

You don't need to involve telnet or Cyg. bash. But you do need to be
administrator. NT also has a 'shutdown' command but of course it's
crippled. Shutgui works well on remote servers. I used it a lot managing
500+ NT servers here in NYC for Smith Barney.

Good Luck,
-Harold
