CTRL+ALT+END if you have the remote desktop full-screened.

or...

Start --> Run -->

shutdown -r -t 10 -f

OK.

Be Careful, when rebooted, it's impossible to logon again (in Workgroup
mode it doesn't work, maybe in Domain mode ?)

Hmmm... I have never had issues logging on after a reboot. I use a work
group environment...

Ben, if that is your experience - then somehting in your configuration
(somewhere down the line) is broke.

I have machines in I remotely manage that are in domains and those I
remotely manage that are not in domains - I have yet to have an issue with
restarting one and not being able to connect to it after it reboots.

I have messed up and shut down the system instead of rebooting - but that's
an "oops" issue - nothing can correct that! heh
