Oh, sorry... I wrote that really quick while chatting with Jim. Here is
the situation: Jim got a new job and must move about 3 states to the
north. He just found out today. He must be there tomorrow. He really
isn't sure when he'll get the time to get back to retrieve his computer; nor
does he know when he'll be able to establish a new internet connection. He
can leave the PyModerator server running, but, as experience has proved, the
server requires a *re-boot* about once per day, so... expect an outage..
...if we manage to tolerate any service interuptions and if Jim is able (or
even willing) to re-establish service within a reasonable period, then we
should not have much to worry about.
However... in the meantime, you should consider this thread to be a
pseudo-MVA and an opertunity for someone to "step up to the plate" if they
so desire to take on the responsibility.
Nathan.

Can't setup a cron task to do a "shutdown -r now" ?
Or is it a windoze system? :-(

Ok, thanks.
PS: I am on a dial-up, so there is not much I can do. And if I get
DSL, the cheap versions are all dynamic IP.

Hello,
As Nathan mentioned, I am moving from Florida to North Carolina.
I am looking for a simple way to restart scripts remotely. In the
extreme past, Windows 3.1 days, I logged onto NT4 workstations
and such via telephone modems and I know such things are pretty
easy to configure. It's been a long time since I've configured
something like that and I believe I can get it to work OK but I
hold no desire in pushing my UID and PW via HTTP.
The job offer took me by surprise and I am toasting in the new
year with it, for in about 10 hours I will start my drive to NC.
Hopefully, everything will work out OK, but I'm looking for a
quick fix for restarting an application and I do not have PC
AnyWhere or other such application installed. Any suggestion is
greatly appreciated. There's not much time to test things so if
someone knows of something already developed and tested on a
Win2K or XP (32-bit) OS, that would be great to hear about it!
Thank you for your understanding and assistance.

There should be some Unix C socket code around for some obsolete UDP
communication protocol, like "finger"... You could use the old "finger"
protocol to do lots of stuff. You could probably even use ftp. ftp of one
file: restarts, another file: shutdown, another file: clear logs, etc.
You'd need a process to monitor what was ftp'd and take action.

Oh, you want security... even for a restart? You could just limit restarts
to once every 6 six hours to prevent "abuse".

Good luck. It seems from your later comments it's not a Unix box. You'll
probably need to ignore the comments above....
If your job is programming related, ask the guys there for help. You might
have access to an "expert" in house. Heck, you might even find you'll have
access to hardware. Then, you owe them. That'll help with your rapport.

http://logmein.com/ has a free service that works _very_ well for
connecting securely to remote Win* machines, even behind NAT/FW connections.

ssh is the std in the Unix world, you could look at
http://sshwindows.sourceforge.net or
http://www.freesshd.com
for host [server] software.
These should give you a fully encrypted channel, with public keys
used to exchange a session [private] key _before_ you login with
UID/PW . Simon Tatham's `putty` is a good MS-Windows client
which should give you a good CMD.EXE command-screen.
IME very easy to use, but you need to know your host FQDN or IP.
