seem a few have seen the reported behavior on DU before.
a suggestion of nohup before the shutdown was a possible fix.
If it happens again, I worry more - for now, I
figure its just a unix thing...
thanks to all on the list.

orig post:
hi all,
We have a weekly reboot of an ES-40 running DU4.0F. This
reboot is executed from a cron:
20 8 * * 0 /sbin/shutdown -f -r now
This has work for the past 14 months.
This sunday it failed, but the /etc/nologin file was written, but no
shutdown was performed.
Nothing was change ( really!).
Has anyone seen this with shutdown before?
