Well, neither APM nor ACPI are supported by SPARC-based systems, but you can achieve (1) by using "shutdown -p". Works fine for me on the Ultra 60 I have running 6.2-RELEASE. If you had access to the serial console of the machine, you could also shut it down from the OpenBoot prompt by using "poweroff" once you'd halted the OS. -mj -- Michael-John Turner | http://mjturner.net/ mj@turner.org.za | Open Source in WC ZA - http://www.clug.org.za/
