Ah!  So it _is_ a Windows only thing!  In that case, if the
workstation in question is running something other than Windows,
presumably it can't be rebooted remotely.

I should have added, "yes it would have to be". The reboot only applies
to the University's leased desktop PC's, and those are required to be
running Windows XP as the main O/S (it's part of the lease requirement).
Therefore, any other computer at the Uni, bought for example by a
faculty/department, should not be affected by it at all - regardless of
whether it is a Windows system, Mac, Linux or whatever.
