I don't know the correct params either. I did some searching and found
mention of a tool named PowerOff, which can be installed as a service and
allows remote access via network connections (such as telnet). Telnet itself
isn't exactly scriptable, but netcat is, so there may be something workable
that way.

Best of luck.
