Re: Shutdown command in Terminal

[James Rice]

That's true.  I remember the Solaris syntax now.  I have a few Sun boxes 
but I like Irix better  so I tend to use them more.  My Origin 200 (Irix 
is SystemV based but some commands use more of a BSD structure) uses 
shutdown -y -p now to shutdown.  Being headless with no graphics 
capability, with an Origin 200, you have to shutdown via console.

Solaris is not a BSDUNIX its SV5R? (AT&T)
The shutdown command on a Solaris box is "shutdown -i5 -g0 -y" or simply
"init 5". I can not speak about IRIX.
Boy I knew being Solaris Certified would come in handy one day. ;-)
 

closer to the normal syntax of Unix like Solaris or Irix.
