Nope, this script is to shutdown, and to start I use wake on lan virtual device in domoticz, is too easy, enable some values in bios menu from pc wake on events on energy management, in Windows, network controller setup, enable magic packet wake on, or wake on lan (WOL), you need mac address of your network card (pc), and IP of your network for broadcast, for example if your pc have ip 192.168.1.105 network value is 192.168.1.255.

ifconfig /all on command provide this values (cmd.exe)

If you don't like put your user/pass, you can create administrative user on pc to shutdown computer (admin rights of course).

I think i have to start here: [ is that correct?]
If you don't like put your user/pass, you can create administrative user on pc to shutdown computer (admin rights of course).


And then this:
net rpc -S 192.168.1.xx -U USER%PWD shutdown -t 1 -f

How do i fill this line correct?
example user is king and pass is day.
net rpc -S 192.168.1.xx -U king%day shutdown -t 1 -f

Or do i not need the % sign

Please will you tell me how i can do this correct.

And do i need to install samba and the smbclient?

Hi.
net rpc -S 192.168.1.xx -U king%day shutdown -t 1 -f
is correct, obviusly you need correct IP (change "xx" for your last ip digits)

And you need samba-common for "net rpc" command

In raspberry for example, (synology have samba-common )

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install samba-common
ssh your domoticz

and test
net rpc -S 192.168.1.xx -U king%day shutdown -t 1 -f

Whitout a password, user non admin.

Create a new normal user without password

Windows key + R

lusrmgr.msc

(users folder right button --> create user)

untick (user change pass next logon) and tick (password never expires, and cannot change pass)

If your windows 7 are professional or ultimate (not for home edition)

Windows key + R

secpol.msc

Add your user to this policies

"force shutdown from remote ...."

and

"Shutdown the system"

reboot

try

Code: Select all

net rpc -S 192.168.1.xx -U king% shutdown -t 1 -f
If doesn't work add pasword for this user and search info to remove other permissions like create profiles or install apps (to no compromise this system).

Sorry my english :)

I'm att office, i test later in home.

An other problem.
My laptop [ WiFi ] is not responding:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ net rpc -S 192.168.5.18 -U Domoticz%Domoticz shutdown -t 1 -fread_fd_with_timeout failed, read error = NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT.
Receiving SMB: Server 192.168.5.18 stopped responding
Could not connect to server 192.168.5.18
Connection failed: NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME
read_fd_with_timeout failed, read error = NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT.
Receiving SMB: Server 192.168.5.18 stopped responding
read_fd_with_timeout failed, read error = NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT.
Receiving SMB: Server 192.168.5.18 stopped responding
Could not connect to server 192.168.5.18
Connection failed: NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME
Only what is bad network name?
Or Better, what is a good name?

Give it a other try:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ net rpc -S 192.168.5.18 -U Domoticz%Domoticz shutdown -t 1 -fCould not connect to server 192.168.5.18
Connection failed: NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL
Could not connect to server 192.168.5.18
Connection failed: NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL
What is here wrong?

Edit:
I make a setting in my WiFi adpater active, share the connection...
Try again:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ net rpc -S 192.168.5.18 -U Domoticz%Domoticz shutdown -t 1 -f
Could not connect to server 192.168.5.18
Connection failed: NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME
Could not initialise pipe \winreg. Error was NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND
And Again:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ net rpc -S 192.168.5.18 -U Domoticz%Domoticz shutdown -t 1 -f
Shutdown of remote machine succeeded
And i am Happy....
Only why respond the pc so slow?

Edit last time:

Not react:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi ~ $  net rpc -S 192.168.5.18 -U Domoticz%Domoticz shutdown -t 1 -f
Could not connect to server 192.168.5.18
Connection failed: NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME
Could not initialise pipe \winreg. Error was NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND

Why not use this: http://www.domotica-blog.nl/post/pc-net ... ia-zipabox

Seems quite easy.... Put the HTTP URL in a virtual switch.

Just wondering if anyone was using this.

I tried to use it by putting in the "http://XXX.XXX.X.X:8000/?action=System.Shutdown"

It is in the "off action" of the switch but when I click it nothing happens.

If I paste the address into my browser, it shuts the machine down no problem.

DO I need to do anything with the http link in the off action part of the switch??

Today I found out wake on lan is not really working for me. After the power returns to a PC, WOL does not work. Power is swtiched off to minimize electricity. PC takes about 30watts when switch off. Normally this works fine, only after a real power outage, the greenwave plug switches on, causing my PC to boot, which is basically only a problem on vacation.

So I wanted to try remote shutdown, so Domoticz could switch off the PC in case it is not switched on intentionally.
It seemed samba-common was already installed on my Pi, but 'net rpc' gives command not found.

Am I doing anything wrong? Any ideas?


Never mind: patience and google are my friends.
had to install samba-common-bin (after apt-get update && upgrade) and do some other windows 10 magic

I tried to use the manual from raxor to shutdown my windows PC with a off button in Domoticz but nothing happens. when I use the command from the schript on shell it shuts down my PC as it should, so what did I miss?

I followed this step by step

I''ve the latest win 10 build (Insidder) and use Domoticz on my RPi.

Hope someone can help me.

Hello,
Instructions from raxor were brilliant and worked like a charm until update of windows 10 bringing possibility of login with PIN.
After that I tried many combinations and I was constantly receiving error after executing the command in console:
Connection failed: NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT

It turned out I had to dig in windows defender firewall and tick all Remote Service Management and Remote Shutdown options to be allowed.
