See /usr/src/sbin/shutdown/Makefile, line 6. `reboot' and `halt' are called by `shutdown`. See /usr/src/sbin/shutdown/shutdown.c, line 382-402. The difference is that with `shutdown' you can define an effective point of time. Bertram -- Bertram Scharpf Stuttgart, Deutschland/Germany http://www.bertram-scharpf.de
