Mr. Dattani:

Thanks for the informative reply. Our homebrew shutdown script reports
zero users logged in just prior to execution of uv.rc stop. It might be
wrong, I suppose. I might also want to examine the output of ps for any
zombie processes as well. These seem like out-on-a-limb suggestions,
though.

Thanks again,

Mike Doyle
