shutdown??  I'll have to look that command up.  I think the last time I
used that command was 2 years ago when I had to change the batteries in the
UPS.  I didn't know you ever had to shut down a linux server.  Nice of them
to include such a command for those strange times when you actually do have
to shutdown the server.  Besides changing the batteries in the UPS the only
other time I can even think of shutting down the server is in the even of a
flood.

Now windoz, that's another story.  I'm VERY familiar with that "Shut
Down..." command.  Use it all the time.  Gee, it's even spelled
differently.

I'll get back to you on your question.
