        You could just hit the reset switch.

        Seriously though if it is Win2k Advanced you should have terminal services installed and you can connect via that and log in with an admin account and reboot that way. If not then I would talk to the support guys and find out why UDP is not working. Just my

              Answers are already giving....Remote reboot switch, or Terminal services...

              Especially the first one is perfect, because that one also works when the server is almost dead

              You can also install NETOP remote control... That also works when Windows won't boot...So it also connects to the box in dos mode etc

                      The computers plug into a switch that is connected to the Internet. This switch controls the power to the computer. The switch has a web-based interface through its IP that you can access and reboot the computer by cutting its power, amongst other things.

                            ironically it would suck if the apc failed to connect
                            then youd need to remote reboot the remote reboot switch

                              Ya i got it, the thing is i dont have that enabled. Its 20 bucks a month extra at managed.com and normally i have no need for it, if i need a reboot i just do that through remote desktop.

                                Then you might want to try the DOS thing mentioned above.

                                I'm going to try the switch method on my home computer. I found a home-use one for $250.

                                    You would have to ask justsexxx. I've never heard of it before, I'm no tech either.

                                      The main question you should be asking yourself is why are you using Windows servers in the first place.

                                        A friend of mine is a tech guy. He fix TV's radio's etc for a living.

                                        Anyway, he bought a cheap cell phone with vibration function, and a sim card for a number.

                                        He opened the phone, took all kinda stuff out of it, and connected it to the ON/OFF thing on his motherboard of the PC. Then he soldered it, and fixed some other stuff. CLosed the PC, and with the eye you don't see a thing.

                                        Now when he calls his "pc" it turns ON, when he calls again, it switch OFF

                                        Really funny, and sometimes useful

                                                  De STD32 is een eenvoudig te installeren en te bedienen telematicamodule. Met de STD32 kunt u met een normale mobiele telefoon tweerelais schakelen en de toestand van twee digitale ingangen bewaken. Naast de STD32 heeft u alleen nog een SIM-kaart van een willekeurige telefoonaanbieder nodig (bijv. KPN, Orange, Telfort, Vodafone, T-Mobile). Typische toepassingen zijn het schakelen van (garage-) deuropeners, verlichting en alarminstallaties, alsmede het genereren van alarmmeldingen (alarm-SMS) of het controleren van deursensoren, bewegingsmelders, niveausensoren, enz.

                                                    Wist niet dat het ook kant en klaar te koop was :-) Maar zijn oplossing is vast goedkoper :-) Vond het wel grappig. Maar echt habdig voor een thuis pc is het ook weer niet. Ben benieuwd of dit aparaat ook herkend of iets AAN of UIT is. Hij kan dat nl niet....

                                                          Anyway, he bought a cheap cell phone with vibration function, and a sim card for a number.

                                                          He opened the phone, took all kinda stuff out of it, and connected it to the ON/OFF thing on his motherboard of the PC. Then he soldered it, and fixed some other stuff. CLosed the PC, and with the eye you don't see a thing.

                                                          Now when he calls his "pc" it turns ON, when he calls again, it switch OFF

                                                          Really funny, and sometimes useful

                                                            Most hosts give that to you for free, well mine does anyway. But if yous charges i would suggest you pay the fee to save you in the future. But even if your host doesnt use them cant they reboot the server for you? I would think that the time it took you to post this thread you could have had them reboot the server for you?
