[Ned Williams]

If someone needs an easy way to shutdown a Win2k server from cygwin or linux,
send an snmptrap to shut it down, you can do this if the win2k is running an snnp
private enterprise extenstion, ie. Insight, or DellNet,or HP Netserver
agent,there might an oid in the new MS snmp mibs but they've always been about
useless.
