None. rc.shutdown is for those processes with slow/important shutdown

Yes it's obvious :) But I've got a little bit confused because I've seen

Try: /usr/local/share/mysql/mysql.server stop
Yes, it should have, but it haven't :) So I've got wondering :)

That's a good practice. There's no doubt about it. But like I said I've
seen very few people using it, in fact I saw it only once, shuting down
amavisd-new. But I don't think that's an error or oversight, that's our
ignorance :) And don't want to be ignorant :) So I've asked the question :)

Write a script /root/sbin/mysql-shutdown.sh with whatever you need in
it, & call that script from /etc/rc.shutdown
Only root can read it.
Or:

Probably most of the programs does handle SIGTERM appropriately, but it
may be too little time for a program to clean itself before it receives
SIGKILL signal. For an example mysql. It needs to kill any connections to

Hi,
yes, You are right - proper shutdown is important. This functionality
realizes script /etc/rc.shutdown fired during shutdown. I that place should
be commands for all services which require shutdown command.
I hope it is what You looking for ;) (sorry if it is to obvious true for
You).

Very few, I'd wager. The only ones I bother with doing it for are
postgresql and mysql since it can take them a while to shut down
correctly and it can get messy if they're not.

Watching the thread about startup script I thought of a question about

Hello,
Simple noob question... I've installed a few packages (ie nrpe2 and
openvpn) that on other systems like Linux and even BSD based systems
such as FreeBSD provide means of a rc script which can start and stop
the service and you can configure this script to be executed on boot.
After install
