So there's no way to automate the shutdown process from my computer ?

I thought maybe there could be a way to create a .bat file or autoit file to automatically connect through ssh and send a shutdown command, then use the script with eventghost to map it to my universal remote or trigger it everytime the htpc is shut down.
