SHUTDOWN(5F)SHUTDOWN(5F)NAME
etc/shutdown - server shutdown control file
DESCRIPTION
If the file etc/shutdown is present it describes when a
HylaFAX server is to be shutdown and may contain a
descriptive message to return to clients explaining the
reason for the shutdown. This file is used by the
hfaxd(8C) program.
The file has the following format:
<year> <month> <day> <hour> <minute> <deny> <disconnect>
<shutdown message text>
The first line defines the date and time the server should
be shutdown and the time preceding at which unprivileged
clients should be denied service or disconnected; these
fields are described in more detail below. Any lines that
follow the first are taken as the text of a message to
return to clients when notifying them of a scheduled shut-
down or when denying them service.
<year> The decimal year; e.g. 1996.
<month> The decimal month; e.g. 10 for October.
<day> The decimal day of the month in the range
[1..31].
<hour> The decimal hour since midnight; in the range
[0..23].
<minute> The decimal minute after the hour; in the range
[0..59].
<deny> The time prior to the shutdown time at which to
deny service to unprivileged clients. This
value is specified as decimal number in the form
HHMM; e.g. 130 for 1 hour and 30 minutes.
<disconnect>
Time time prior to the shutdown time at which to
disconnect unprivileged clients that are logged
in to the server. This value is specified as a
decimal number in the form HHMM.
