That sounds pretty much like the goal. Here's where my
newbiness is exposed: I can't figure out how to do that.
mp3blaster is interactive and grabs control of the console,
so I'd have to bring up a second console screen on the local
machine. This is easy enough but I don't know what commands
to issue.

That does work, and eliminates the whole problem; but I
want to be able to shut down the local pc... and - it has
become a Project.
