Install cygwin(it is free). It creates a guest linux operating system on the xp box.
Cygwin

From there, install ssh keys to each remote box you want to work with. In cygwin you can then issue

Code:
ssh privuser@remotebox "[system specific shutdown command goes here]"

to shutdown any box you need.

if you want to shutdown a server, you need the root password. or you need passwordless ssh configured or something like rlogin (which isn't very secure, like telnet).

Another option would be to install PuTTY on your XP machine. It is both a telnet and ssh client.
