Shut down Debian box remotely
Posted: Tue Jun 24, 2008 6:39 pm
I thought using the command:
Effectively shut down the computer but apparently it does not kill the power or anything. Is there a command which will shutdown the system normally and kill the power?
I just moved an old computer into the basement which I plan on using as a central server and have the BIOS configured to start the PC at 8AM everyday...this setup is working wicked cool...but Ideally I don't have to go into the basement every night to hit the power switch on the PC...
Ideas?
Code: Select all
