NAME
       ftpshut - close down the FTP Servers at a given time

SYNOPSIS
       ftpshut [-V] [-v] [-l min] [-d min] time
	    [warning-message]...

DESCRIPTION
       The  ftpshut  command provides an automated shutdown procedure that the
       superuser can use to notify FTP users when the FTP Server  is  shutting
       down.

       Ten  minutes  before  shutdown,	or immediately if the value of time is
       less than ten minutes, any new FTP Server connections will be disabled.
       You  may	 adjust the shutdown of new FTP Server connections by means of
       the -l option.

	Five minutes before shutdown, or immediately if the value of  time  is
       less  than  five	 minutes,  all current FTP connections will be discon‐
       nected. You may adjust the shutdown of current FTP connections by means
       of the -d option.

	The ftpshut command creates shutdown message files that the FTP Server
       uses to determine when to shutdown. Separate shutdown message files are
       created in the anonymous and virtual host FTP Server areas, in addition
       to the system wide shutdown message file. Once the shutdown occurs, the
       server  continues  to refuse connections until the appropriate shutdown
       message	file  is  removed.  This  normally  is	done  by   using   the
       ftprestart(1M)  command.	 The  location of the shutdown message file is
       specified by the shutdown capability in the ftpaccess file.

       The following magic cookies are available:

       %s    The time system is going to shut down.

       %r    The time new connections will be denied.

       %d    The time current connections will be dropped.

       %C    The current working directory.

       %E    The maintainer's email address as defined in the ftpaccess file.

       %F    The free space in the partition of CWD, in kilobytes.

       %L    The local host name.

       %M    The maximum allowed number of users in this class.

       %N    The current number of users in this class.

       %R    The remote host name.

       %T    The local time (form Thu Nov 15 17:12:42 1990).

       %U    The username given at login time.

OPTIONS
       The ftpshut command supports the following options:

       -V	 Display program copyright and version information, then  ter‐
		 minate.

       -d min	 The time ahead of shutdown, in minutes, that existing connec‐
		 tions will be disconnected upon completion of	their  current
		 or next (if idle) FTP request.

       -l min	 The  time ahead of shutdown, in minutes, that new connections
		 will be refused.

       -v	 Verbose. Output the pathname of the  shutdown	message	 files
		 created.

OPERANDS
       The ftpshut command supports the following operands:

       time		  The time at which ftpshut will bring the FTP Servers
			  down. time can have a value of now, which  indicates
			  an immediate shutdown. Alternatively, time can spec‐
			  ify a future time in one of two formats: +number  or
			  HHMM.	 The  first form brings the FTP Server down in
			  number minutes. The second  brings  the  FTP	Server
			  down	at  the time of day indicated, using a 24-hour
			  clock format. When using the absolute	 time  format,
			  you can only specify times between now and 23:59.

       warning-message	  The  message	to  display that warns of the imminent
			  shutdown. The warning-message will be	 formatted  at
			  70  characters wide. ftpshut knows the actual string
			  length of the magic cookies. If  no  warning-message
			  is supplied, the default message "System shutdown at
			  %s" is used.

       The following exit values are returned:

       0     Successful completion.
