Sure, worst case is that monit, in the middle of shutting down, requests a service start which won't ever happen (because the machine will be shut down by then). -- Tollef Fog Heen UNIX is user friendly, it's just picky about who its friends are -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
