Granted, the last version of Linux I used was YellowDog something or another, and a 2.2.x kernel, but, as I recall, "shutdown -h now" halts the system, immediately. -r would cause the system to reboot, and changing "now" to some other value, such as a number, it would take that many seconds before the system shutdown.

And -k apparently kicks all users but root then disables them from logging back in.

From my SuSE 9.0 manual:

-k Don't really shutdown; only send the warning
messages to everybody.

So actually, then prophile disables them from logging back in.

That's in the SuSE 9.2 one also, at least I think it is. I need to get my copy of that out.

Mac OS X must use a different version/implementation of shutdown then.

"Think Different"

Soon the Mac OS X will be more common on Intel hardware, then my multi-boot PC will have 5 to choose from.

Shouldn't you have a humorously derisive profile, Xandor?

Nevada is nicer than you think.

[Cleaned]
You should be more careful next time...
and I'll be more derisive. Any suggestions?
What NO derision?

For someone who's supposed to be in Sparks, NV, you're doing a good job of actually existing in Phoenix, AZ...
