Andrew, Do the VNC developer know about this problem? It really is a pain, and we are now switching to PC anywhere just because of that fact. I can't imagine that it would be that hard for them to fix.

Look for my name when looking for the details/ The trick is that we need to let the SCM know that we are shutting down (STOP_PENDING), and simply ignore that. The SCM will kill us as the last thing it does. The VNC SC handler must be cognizant of the state of the machine - we don't want to unnecessarily make the box take longer than necessary on the way down. The other thing to do is to put in some service dependencies, but on a default system, this doesn't really help if we're a leaf node of the dependency graph.
