>From reading the man page on halt - when halt or reboot are called and the system is not in runlevel 0 or 6 then the shutdown command is called with -h or -r. (halt == shutdown -h now, reboot == shutdown -r now) so everything *should* work fine. What version of halt are you running? Mine is from the sysvinit_2.69-1.deb package. The manpage does indicate that halt and reboot should *never* be called directly in previous versions os sysvinit. > > Dany Dionne > Physics Department > Laval University, Canada > Chuck -- Chuck Stickelman, Owner E-Mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Practical Network Design Voice: (419) 529-3841 9 Chambers Road FAX: (419) 529-3625 Mansfield, OH 44906-1302 USA -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
