KDM - Howto reboot a remote XTerminal?

[Alexander Puchmayr]

Hi folks!

I've got a pool of X-Terminals, which are boind via query-XDCMP to a rather 
big server. 
The intuitive way to reboot such a xterminal would be to configure KDM to 
show a reboot/shutdown option. 

kdmrc has the fields:

[Shutdown]
HaltCmd=/sbin/halt
LiloCmd=/sbin/lilo
LiloMap=/boot/map
RebootCmd=/sbin/reboot

When leaving this untouched, the user reboots the server, which is 
definitely not what he (and me as the admin) wants.

Question:
Is there some variable or place holder for the IP of the terminal that kdm 
handles?
I though of something like

[Shutdown]
HaltCmd=/usr/local/sbin/halt_terminal.sh $REMOTEIP
RebootCmd=/usr/local/sbin/reboot_terminal.sh $REMOTEIP

with both scripts sending the actual reboot/halt command via 
rsa-authenticated ssh-commands to the actual terminal.

Thanks in advance
