Perhaps this will help, from the version announcement: "I've just updated the version of shutdown to 1.7-1. This version adds the -x/--exitex option, which allows to use the ExitWindowsEx function on Windows NT. This is important if shutdown is supposed to poweroff on Windows 2000, since the InitiateSystemShutdown implementation on Windows 2000 unfortunately misses to do this."
