Rebooting a distant NT machine

[Glenn Mabbutt]

On this list a while ago someone posted a fairly detailed description of how
VNC is interacting as a service, and what's wrong with it;  is anyone
working on changing this in the code so that it shuts down last when run as
a service??

Though rebooting an NT machine with VNC is risky.  VNC, even when running as
a service, shuts down like a normal application, so if anything pops up a
dialog box asking (say) if you want to save a file the reboot will never
complete and you'll be stuck with a running machine with the VNC service
stopped.
