I believe its shutdown -n "computer name" then use all the other modifiers. It been a while since I did that in Comp Sci.

I know the correct syntax but when I try to run the command I receive "Access is denied"

I'm guessing you need to enable something on the computer your shutting down to accept the incoming connection?
