You need to use the "-h" flag to halt. From the man pages: shutdown does its job by signalling the init process, asking it to change the runlevel. Runlevel 0 is used to halt the sys tem, runlevel 6 is used to reboot the system, and runlevel 1 is used to put to system into a state where administra tive tasks can be performed; this is the default if nei ther the -h or -r flag is given to shutdown. Type "man shutdown" to get useful info like this about "shutdown"; it also works for most other commands. Cool, eh? just didn't seem right, thought i had it working before with "shutdown now". no biggy. i got it working :)
