Sure it can do that; the question is how _best_ to hook it in. UPS support isn't a native part of the operating system itself, so it's likely that this needs to have some sort of "plug-in" type of design. One way I've been suggesting to do it is to have a (presumably unique) "run me last on shutdown" service flag. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <james.d.carlson at sun.com> Sun Microsystems / 35 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677
