1) Run the command shutdown.exe on the command line. Note that the program supports only shutdown (-s) and restart (-r); it doesn't do stand-by or hibernate. Also, it requires you to have administrator privileges. If you are a limited user with shutdown privileges, the shutdown.exe program will complain.
2) Use the Ctrl+Alt+End hotkey (It's the Remote Desktop version of Ctrl+Alt+Del). This will bring up the full screen menu as shown on the right. Click on the red button near the bottom right and you will get the options to Shutdown, Restart and Sleep!

I am working on 2 Vista Business work stations and the restart, sleep and shutdown options are grayed out on the start menu. The work stations are set up for remote desktop. The options are unavailable from the domain user only. The remote was set up for the domain user profile. I can log in as the local user and the options become available. They are also back on when logged in as admin on the domain. I will try to turn off RD tomorrow and post the results.
