How do you shutdown from login?
Hello all -
On some of the systems we use - AlphaServer es40 Tru64 digital unix - you can login with the username: shutdown - with no password - and it shuts down the system gracefully. I've tried to trace what's going on in the system, but to no avail.
I've been searching the web, but haven't found anything useful. I entered a new user (shutdown) modified it's .bash_profile to call shutdown, but this doesn't seem to work.
How is this accomplished?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.
