Unhappy A Simple Scheduling Query


Hullo guys...

I have this simple problem.

* I've this CDMA net conxn which is free from 10pm - 6am.
* I regularly download files through Flashget or Azureus BitTorrent client.
* So the thing is this ki though Flashget has got a scheduling option to hangup the conxn at 6am, but the same isn't there in Azureus.
* Is there any way that the torrent d/l stops and the conxn hangsup automatically at the desired time??

Do tell me guys...Its urgent. I've to wake up everyday at 6am and switch it off manually

Waiting for ur replies!!!

Default Re: A Simple Scheduling Query

If you are using XP try this.

1. Open Comand Prompt
2. Type Shutdown -s -f -t xxxx
3. Press Enter

Where -s is to confirm shutdown, -f will close all your programs before shuting your pc down, -t is timer that you can set to desired time and xxxx is time in second(s).

i.e. If you're downloading somthing and time is 10:30 PM you can set timer to close all your applications and shutdown pc at 05:50 AM by using this commad in "Command Prompt".

Shutdown -s -f -t 26400

Later you can wake up at your time and start your pc whenever you want.

One more importent thing. Once you initiate process you won't be able to close/stop it. To abort process type this in "Comand Prompt".

1. Shutdown -a
2. Enter

Where -a is to abort shutdown process.

Enjoy

scheduled task is stupid!! Use "shutdown -s -t 120" in cmd ! where 120 is seconds before shutdown.
