@Damian7546 You can execute following command:

shutdown -h now

[Damian7546]

@jsulm But how execute this command on remote machine from local machine with qt app?

Unless you are using QtRemoteObjects I don't think that is a Qt-related question. If you mean you can execute commands on the remote from the local via ssh then Qt's QProcess allows (local) OS commands to be run.

@JonB I feel we don't understand each other.
I have a computer with ip address 192.168.1.50 with qt app. In this app I need write code which one will be shutdown the computer with Linux with ip addres: 192.168.1.51 ? It is possible ?How do this ?

@Damian7546 Hi,

The most simple would be to use QProcess and use ssh to execute the command on the remote node.

Which is 100% what I said :)

@Damian7546
If you mean you can go into a shell and use ssh to invoke the shutdown command for a remote machine then you can do that from a Qt program via QProcess.

If you mean anything else please clarify what you expect to do,.
