Hello everybody,

I just built a FreeBSD 4.1 gateway system based on a 486 66, 8mb, 850 Mb =
harddisk system. It works perfectly, and for me it was intended to let =
it run day and night so I never thought about what when turning it off =
then.

So my question is, is it harmful to turn it of without using any =
commands, for example when it just booted and is showing the login =
prompt (which is enough for the gateway services i installed anyway).=20

Thanks for any replies,

Pascal Willemssen
