Re: shut down problem

RE: shut down problemI 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.

  What happens if you 'init 0'?

  No luck Dave.  It simply reboots. 
  Any other suggestions. 
  I'm stumped.
