Remote Reboot Windows XP

Using the Remote Desktop client to connect to a Windows XP system will not provide you with the option to reboot or restart the remote machine.  This can be done from the command line however.  Open a command prompt (Start->Run->Cmd.exe) and use the command…

shutdown -r -t 0

… to open a gui interface to manage the reboot …

shutdown -i
