When I issue a remote shutdown command to a windows 2008 server , I get the following in the logs:

11/1/2010 6:33:57 PM Info Task started: Shutdown test (3)

I am running version 5.6.9

Note that when I issues a remote Restart command with the same credentials and server info, the task succeeds.

If an older version of VCron will work as an interim solution, PLEASE let me know.

Thanks

At first glance there seem to be some missing value. Have you selected a Credential?

Could you add a screenshot of your settings in Restart tab?

Here are the restart and shutdown screenshots. Restart works and shutdown fials. Same parameters, same credentials, same machine.

Thanks,

Chuck

Please test with this updated version:
