Scott, Yes there are shutting down as I expect them to do.

From what you seem to be doing in the code (trapping the shutdown msgs) it 'sounds' like maybe they aren't -- otherwise, you could simply do a QUERY USERID until you get RC45 for all the guests.. If they aren't logging off - there are ways to configure Linux so that they do. That should simplify everything.. Scott Rohling On Wed, Oct 8, 2008 at 7:18 AM, Martin, Terry R.

All of the Linux shutdowns can be controlled by an authorized user. As each Linux is shut down, it is reported to the user that issued the command. -- Rich Smrcina VM Assist, Inc.
