There is a (moderately good) howto by me and an excellent one by Paul Bijnens at this location : http://www.amanda.org/docs/howto-wrapper.html
I use it to shut down Lotus Domino and Oracle databases. Bert "Stefan G.

I can imagine the solution already, shouldn't be too hard, but I am curious if someone here is already successfully doing this, and if he or she might want to share knowledge or even the script itself ;) Thanks in advance, Stefan
