    How to successfully remote shutdown multiple computers A, B, C?

    Here I got 3 computers A,B and C, they are all with windows xp pro running.

    Above all: I've open the remote force shutdown permission for guest account in all of these three computer. But....

    1.I tried to remote shutdown B from A by using command:
    Code:
    shutdown -s -m \\ip -t 0 -f
    The result is "Access is denied". Then I thought there maybe exist some problems in the computer of B or A.

    2. Then I tried to remote shutdown B from C by using the same command used in step 1. It works well, B was shutdown successfully.
    So it seems the configuration of B is OK. maybe A is the problem to work as the one to send the shutdown command.

    3. So I tried to remote shutdown C from A by using the same command to figure out whether the problem still exists in shutting down another computer by the command sent from A, And to my surprise, it works well, C was shutdown successfully. Then it seems that A is OK to work as a command sender.

    4. Here I am totally lost:
    B can be shutdown by C, Which can prove that B is OK to be the one to be shutdown remotely.
    A can shutdown C, Which can prove that A is OK to be the one to shutdown someone remotely.

    But A can not shutdown B, Why? All the steps are performed in the same configuration. Anyone has any idea about that? Thanks firstly!
