in thread NT RPC and Shutdown.

there is a matching Win32::AbortSystemShutdown which, if sent before $count seconds from above, will cancel the shutdown

Great, so I'll make a "self-destruct button" that causes a shutdown in a specified amount of time, with a nice big pTK countdown and a red button to abort it, like any good self-destruct sequence should have.

    The NT shutdown already has a big countdown window (but no abort button), BTW. (:

      Ah, my UNIX-hood is showing through. It just seemed so dramatically appropriate, in a "B" movie sort of way.

      Of course I can do the same for my UNIX servers, but no one but me is looking at the console, anyhow, so it's not as fun. 8)
