If there are multiple computers on the network, it doesn’t matter which operating system, you can shut them down remotely. If using Windows, you will need to set up the target computer to be able to shutdown remotely. Once the setup is complete, you can proceed with a remote shutdown on any computer including Linux. Mac computers can also be shut down remotely with a simple Terminal command.
Steps
Enable Remote Registry Service (Windows)
