Frank;
Thanks for the reply. The name is in the message by the way.
So I take it that some "option" always has to be specified when using the
command?
Example:
shutdown -P now
If an option is required it would be nice to at least get an error message
to that effect so I would know I did something stupid. Otherwise it looked
like it worked until I noticed the directly attached console screen.

Hello Mr. Mail (or may I call you Comcast?):
I've normally used the command "shutdown now" as root in a terminal
window,
in a remote VNC session, on other machines and it works. I want to run
the
machine I have as a headless server/remote workstation.
You haven't included the option part of the command.
shutdown -r now
shutdown -h now
