You can purchase IP manageable power strips from APC.  THey'll run a
couple of hundred dollars.  Or you can build a device that uses the
serial port or parallel port to control a relay that will cycle power on
an outlet.  Bulding a serially controlled device would be easier then IP
based one.  On the serial contol you don't even need a  PIC.  Simply by
raising DTR you could turn off power and then by dropping it turn it
on.  This device is stateless.  Turning off the linux box that control
it will effect how it behaves.

X10 is still a good solution.
