Switching off a computer via a network

Hi all,
I am running four computers on a wireless home network, one of which is now a standby/back up machine that has no keyboard or monitor attached.

Whilst I can start up the machine without problem, to shut it down I need to hit the power switch which of course is not ideal.

Does anyone know how I can command the remote machine to shut down via the network or am I stuck with cutting the power. This will mean that one day it will not take nicely to it and break down.

Thanks for any help.
