SHUTDOWN command line switch's

shutdown [ -t secs ]  [ options ]  time  [ message to users ]
(i.e.  "shutdown -h now" this will shut down Linux)

Option                             Description

  -r   * This option tells init to reboot the system once all processes have been shut down.

  -h  *             Halts the system once all of the processes have shut down.  Then shuts down the box.

  -a       Use etc/shutdown.allow

  -k                 Does not shut down Linux, just sends the warning messages to users.

  -c                 Cancels a running shutdown command.

  -f                  Skips the filesystem check on reboot  'fast reboot'.

  -F                 Forces a 'fsck' filesystem check on reboot.

  -n       Do not go through init but go down real fast!

  -t secs:      Delay between Warning and Kill signal.

  time                        Time to perform the shutdown.  Time may be specified as an absolute time
                                 in hh:mm:ss format or as +N where N is the number of minutes from the current
                                 time.  You may also specify the time as "now", which is an alias for +0 minutes.

  message                  Optionally, you may send system users a message using the wall command.

 * = these are used the most.
