Do you have SSH enabled on the remote system?

If so, just login to the remote system using ssh (putty), and use the reboot command.

When you write boot the system,
do you mean start an turned of server?
or to log in remotely?
or to reboot the server with different settings?

SSh is not enabled.

You need some sort of remote access capability to the system you wish to reboot. Is there internet or dialup access to the remote system? If no dialup, is the system behind a firewall? If you don't want to connect the system to the internet (making it accessible to hackers), then you can connect a modem to the computer and a phone line. You can then use that for dialup access so you can issue the reboot command. You probably want to configure the system to reboot on power-restore so it can restart after a power failure. A UPS with software that can sanely shut down the system when there is a power failure is also a really important consideration. Then, when the power comes back, the system can restart without the need to repair broken file systems.
