remote application start, remote shutdown, remote dialogue

How can i start a winforms application on remote
workstation, no matter who or if there is somebody logged
in?

My problems:
1) I need to shutdown computers in the evening that have
not been shutdown by the (roaming) users, no matter if
there is somebody logged in or not.
If there is somebody logged in and sitting in front of the
PC, he should get a dialogue and be able to refuse the
shutdown. This info should be sent back to the initiating
PC.

2) I need to find out the username of the remote user for
a "who is where" display.

3) the users of the remote PCs can be priviledged or not.
