if you can vpn the lan, you may have many options to shutdown it remotely. quoted from http://www.howtonetworking.com/shutdown.htm
How to shutdown a Win2000/XP remotely
To remote shutdown windows 2000/XP, 1) run MMC>Computer Management; right-click Computer Management (local)>connect to another computer; select the remote computer; right-click Computer Management (remote computer)>Properties>Advanced>startup & Recovery>shutdown. 2) use command shutdown \\computername. Note: The specified computer may not shut down when you use the Shutdown.exe tool to shut it down. This behavior can occur if the Unlock Computer dialog box appears on the desktop, or if the computer is locked. 3) Other remote access software such as Terminal Service, pcAnywhere, Netmeeting, VNC and Telnet. 4) Use Shutgui.exe from NT Resource Kit

I have terminal services running for admin purposes and if I restart the
system from TS my session ends but the server never restarts. If I try to
log back on it succeeds but all I see is a blue screen and have no control
over anything. Now the iis server replies with error "Service unavailable"
and will do so until I can get to the server location to reboot it. Its
like it started to shutdown but got stuck.
My first questions : Is there some tool that will allow me to force a reboot
without having to be there if this happens again?
Second: What could cause this?
Its a dell poweredge dual processor running win2k3 server.
