Hi List, what is the shutdown user ready-made in the passwd file good for? - to be able to shut down, isn't it?
So this is what I tried (in RHEL): "login:" > shutdown, "enter password:" so I did. what I get is: "you have to be root to do that. It sounds like the system misunderstands my answer to the login prompt as a command or - as the Germans would say: do I have tomatoes on my eyes (not to see something I should)?
