Does anyone know if a plugin of some sort exists for Tasker to shutdown a pc over lan, I know I can do it using Unified Remote but I was hoping for a more automated solution.

The idea is to shutdown my File Server when I trigger my sleep profile. Next month or so I should have my Raspberry Pi and it will be replacing the current MCP which will then become simply storage, if all goes well I will use my old 320GB 2.5" drive as the secondary storage for the Pi and it will hold copies of all the active series as well as the temp for downloads. Basically will only need the fileserver on while I am at home and awake in the evening and already have a profile turning it on when I connect to my wifi.

go into CMD, then type in shutdown -i
It brings up a GUI, I use it to shut down my PC's if I'm too lazy to leave the room

ja the shutdown command can be pretty versatile check in command prompt what all you can do with it "shutdown /?" you should be able to schedule it in to tasker run task - shutdown - %%%%
