<DIV>P.S.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Be sure to do the test in the context of the /etc/init.d/halt script.
I don't know whether it does the same thing in the context of a running system
or not.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Just edit /etc/init.d/halt</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>and just before the </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>halt -f</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>put</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>....</DIV>
<DIV>ifconfig</DIV>
<DIV>halt -i -w</DIV>
<DIV>ifconfig</DIV>
<DIV>sleep 20</DIV>
<DIV>....</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>the distro halt will not show any change between the two ifconfig
runs. The halt compiled by hand 'make halt' in the src in the
sysvint sources will properly down the interfaces.</DIV>
