I didn't find any of these details before, so I'm adding them to the wiki after this. I think the shutdown seems good (though it shut down some machines I was testing on Sunday - perhaps it was after 16:00). However I don't want wake-up at all. Some computers are not used some days, or not until the afternoon, etc. Also what would happen in the school holidays? cheers nigel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
