To shut the system down, before you logout type 'shutdown -r'. The system will go thru the process of killing all running processes and then unmount the filesystems. This is the key part, unmounting the filesystems makes sure that all of your data was written to disk and that it is clean. After it is done you can turn the computer off. good luck -- ----- -- - -------- --------- ---- ------- ----- - - --- -------- Ben Collins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Debian GNU/Linux UnixGroup Admin - Jordan Systems Inc.
