Title: RE: shut down problem

I haven't been following this thread, but 'init 0' is what I use to shutdown my linux servers completely. (If they power back on by themselves, it might be a setting in your BIOS).   'init 0' is not as 'graceful' as shutdown, which does proper  housecleaning and allows processes to terminate themselves and their child processes. 'init 6' will reboot your machine.    Jason ----- Original Message ----- From: Quillen, Channon To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: Wednesday, August 27, 2003 3:36 PM Subject: RE: shut down problem What happens if you 'init 0'? -Channon -----Original Message----- From: Nick H Johnson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, August 26, 2003 6:22 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: shut down problem dave c wrote: >  > try "shutdown -h now" > > See if that does it. > > No luck Dave.  It simply reboots.
