Coming to us from Belgium is a new add-in: AutoExit 2008 for Windows Home Server.
AutoExit allows you to remotely control all of you home computers from within the Windows Home Server Console. You can shutdown or reboot computers on your network, send messages to individual machines and open Remote Desktop sessions to any of the home computers to allow full control of that machine.
Hi - I'm Terry and I'm the Owner of We Got Served. The site's been covering everything to do with Windows Home Server since February 2007.
I live in Silverstone, UK with my wife and when I'm not working on We Got Served, I have a career as an Innovation Consultant to contend with.
I’ve tried this one recently and I recommend it very much.
It doesn’t have support for WOL but I contacted them and they will add it also in the near future.
Watch out for this one. It made my WHS Console slow opening, received an error most openings, and my network computers were not identified. During one of the times that I got the console to open, I removed it. Everything worked fine afterwards.
