Gordon, Apologies for not getting back to you with logging info on the issue with CLI issued blocks not being cleared, and automated shutdown not working.
I had to rebuild my server in the end, and installed Ubuntu 9.10, and SBS 7.4.2, and am hence using the beta version of SrvrPowerControl. I'm using the Monitor Idle Players facility to suspend the server on player inactivity (I'm able to do this, because I have FINALLY figured out how to get WOL from suspend working, so restarting takes 5 seconds instead of a minute). I also use the End of Day facility, to shutdown the server, and switch the players to MySqueezeBox.com. It occurred to me that Idle, and EOD facilties could clash, so I've been exploring how to set RTC wakeup times (stimulated by your helper scripts). I noticed when checking /proc/driver/rtc (and also the srvrpowercontrol log file) that an alarm had been for 10:19pm, 1 minute before I have EOD start to check for idle players. In my testing, I have been using the "Alarm interactions" facility to wake up the server before an alarm (which works very well, even if the server is shutdown - S5), and I'd set that to wake 1 minute before the alarm. Maybe it is a coincidence, but have you tied Monitor Idle and EOD using the Wake for alarm facility? Fantastic if you have, saves me some work!
