Shutting down windows NT remotely (without winnt toolkit)?

[Lincoln Yeoh <lyeoh () pop jaring my>]

A reboot isn't helpful coz the machines come back up and start scanning the
whole internet again. And the clueless admins probably won't even notice.

A proper no data loss shutdown without having to upload a program is
preferable. I tried shutting down NT 4.0 using cmd.exe, rundll32.exe and
user32.dll stuff and no luck so far :(. 

With a shutdown the admins should notice and eventually fix things. If they
don't then the server probably wasn't doing anything useful (just scanning
the internet :) ) so it might as well be shut down :).

Any ideas welcome.

Cheerio,
Link.
