I have tried shutdown-1.6-1. Now it seems to work in the sense that
shutdown now
shutdown 5
... 30
etc.
starts the procedure of shutdown, i.e. disconnets the user, saves the
configuration... . When it seems it is being to turn off the PC, Windows
says (in low resoultion)
Now it is possible to turn off the computer
and I must press the switch off button more than five seconds to turn off
the PC! (Until now I never used this method to switch off the PC.)
(reboot works as the name says: reboot!)
If this is the correct behaviour of shutdown 1.6-1, it would not be good.
It would have lost its utility.
For example, I often start the PC to make a long work at the end of which
the computer should turn off without my presence (in the night,often).
With this shutdown-1.6-1, this is not more possible.
shutdown-1.4-1 and cygwin (until) 1.5.12-1 give no problems!
(With 1.5.13 and 1.5.14 I have not tried)
My system is
Win 2000 SP4
cygwin 1.5.15-1
I have tried as Administrator (of the group Administrators) and as user
(of the group Users) with the some results.
