Shutdown.exe, the windows shutdown application, has an arguement(-i) for a remote shutdown. A GUI pops up and you can remotely shutdown someones computer. What is the packet thats sent when this happens? What port is it on? And how can I find out this stuff in future?

Windows and most system level applications that would require this behaviour would use the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) protocol as an inter-process method of communication. This is based on the TCP/IP(Wikipedia) protocol so it should not be much different than others based on that as well.
The ports used may vary, so some information can be read about it here as I do not have as much knowledge on this:

How to configure RPC dynamic port allocation to work with firewalls (Dynamic RPC port of which RSP uses)
