12.04 login/restart through network.

[zemega]

Hi, I was using Teamviewer8 to do labwork on a remote computer. I accidentally set it to log off instead of restart it. So I'm sure its on the login screen now. Luckily I also set TV on another computer next to it. Connecting to the nearby instead, I can ping the computer next to it. So I'm trying to make the computer next by to either log in or restart though a computer set up with Ubuntu 13.04. How can I do this?

You'd need ssh server installed on it then from your current pc ssh user@ip

from there you could sudo reboot

I tried that, but i got connection refused.

I believe I can't install ssh server on it right now. I installed ssh server on the pc im using right now though.

Yer you'd need sshserver on the one you can't connect to. You need physical access now

I guess i have to reset it physically then. does it matter if both computer have ssh server?

[SlugSlug]

nope dnt matter.

Its good then. Ill mark this as solved.
