Hi, I need a solution how to remotely put windows on sleep mode. Is there any way to configure 2 stations to accept remote commands using IP address. I have seen the methods using PsExec tools but still I don't find an exact way using IP instead of computer names inside a domain. Moreover I want to skip solutions that use special software for remote assistance. I need simple way to do it inside windows frame. Is there any way that I can send batch file to be executed automatically on the other side? Thank you!

As far as I know there is no out-of-the-box way to remotely put a remote computer in standby. There is also no direct way to run a specific command on a remote machine without tools like psexec. I would recommend using psshutdown (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-US/sysinternals/bb897541.aspx) to put a remote computer in standby.MCP/MCSA/MCTS/MCITP
