system shutdown

it is possible to shutdown the system from KDE?
well, i know it is possible, but i'd like to poweroff my system when xmms reaches the end of playlist, for instance?
i tried kdeinit_shutdown, but it only "logs me off"
pls help me :)

I've read that you can use
[code:1]dcop --all-users ksmserver ksmserver logout 0 2 0[/code:1]

And as said here you can use the command sequence
[code:1]kdeinit_shutdown # stops kdeinit started programs
dcopserver_shutdown # shut's down the KDE IPC system
artsshell -q terminate # stops the arts sound server
[/code:1]

edit: just in case I'm missing something with that "WITHIN KDE" thin. You can always go to the K-Menu choose logoff and then shutdown, right

How to do plan on executing the command? via script?

If you want users to shutdown from KDE, give them permission.

I was under the impression you just weren't sure of the command. Sorry.
