To reboot a remote machine you need to supply the remote hosts's name:
shutdown -r -m \\hostname
But then you run into user permissions on both the local and remote
machine, matching user names, passwords and all that.
I don't know ALL of what's involved, but run "gpedit.msc" and look at
Local Computer Policy->Computer Configuration->Windows
Settings->Security Settings->Local Policy->User Rights Assignment
where you'll find "Shut down the system" and "Force shutdown from a
remote system"
