More likely, the problem is that shutdown is not closing everything down properly. I have the problem that when a member of group operator uses shutdown, the machine just hangs there and never syncs the disks. If I eventually power cycle, I come up with, WARNING: / was not properly dismounted! I've never had any network related issues to this however. -- Crist J.
