I have a dual boot machine (Windows-XP + Fedora-4)
on my otherwise Linux network.

Is there any way I can persuade this machine to reboot
when it is running Windows
from a Linux box?
(It boots from grub, and Linux is the default,
so if it re-boots it will start up in Linux.)

I can ping the machine when it is running Windows
from my Linux box.
Is there any message I can send it
to persuade it to re-boot?

All suggestions gratefully received.
