ID Remote Shutdown Manager v 1.1   -- for windows 95/98/ME/NT 4.0/2000
----------------------------------------------------------------------

(homepage : http://www.librarysmith.co.uk/sdman)

Remote Shutdown Manager has been designed to log-off, reboot, or even shut down networked computers running Microsoft Windows (95/98/NT 4.0/2000) from a remote location on the network running the TCP/IP protocol. Advanced features include thoughtful items such as a time delay, warning broadcast, serialized security, and batched remote client installation. Up to 9999 clients can be serviced from one manager console and arranged in folder groupings of up to 99 client PCs. When the client is installed for NT or 2000 it can run as a NT service; command line operation of the manager is also possible. Remote Shutdown Manager is particularly useful for enforcing system policy for backups or security.


Shareware
---------
This is a fully working five licence version and will work on five computers only. Registered users can shutdown more computers. Please visit our website to register on-line.

Installation
------------
Extract the zip file to a folder. You will need to enter a serial number for security purposes. A generic serial number is supplied (see Readme.txt) but we recommend you visit http://www.librarysmith.co.uk/sdman to obtain your free unique five licence serial number. This is a security measure that prevents un-authorised users shutting down computers. Run 'setup.exe'. Enter the serial number EXACTLY, the setup program will not verify it's correctness. Follow the on-screen instructions. Instructions for client installation are avaiable in the Shutdown Managers help file and on the internet at http://www.librarysmith.co.uk/sdman (see frequently asked questions). NB: You need to have administrative rights to install shutdown manager and it's client software on NT or Windows 2000 workstations and servers.
