You could try "halt" or "Shutdown -h"

Subject: [uug] remotely shutting down machines


I want to shut down/power off machines remotely.

# shutdown -r now

reboots them, which I don't want.

#shutdown now

puts them into "maintenance mode." Q. what is maintenance mode anyway? Can
I power them off physically when they are in maintenance mode?

I want them to turn off remotely without out flipping any switches
physically.

ideas?

MRB
