I did some checking around, and found etherial, but it wanted me to install
alot of other stuff.  I find a kewl console app called netwatch.  It works
pretty good and does what I want it to do.

Now how do I go about knocking a DHCP'd computer off the network?  I can get
access to the router setup, and delete a compuber from the dhcp table, but
that doesn't accomplish what I want to do.  The computer just renews it's IP
from dhcp when it needs it.  I want to disable any network connection to
that computer, via remote.

I've got a lynksys router, and I can get in to it remotely, but I can do
what I need to do from there.  Any ideas?
