Re: Over ridding a shutdown command.

shutdown.exe /A

You didn't tell us what O/S you're using so I have assumed it's Windows. The shutdown exe is in the NTReskit so I assume it's available in the other Reskits, too...

I also assume that you can do it using the Win32 API but I don't know how off-hand.


   Win32::AbortSystemShutdown(MACHINE)
       [EXT] Aborts a system shutdown (started by the
       InitiateSystemShutdown function) on the specified MACHINE.
