halt, reboot, poweroff are part of the Debian (potato) package sysvinit (version 2.78-4). reboot and poweroff are just symlinks to halt. The program is stripped and compressed with upx. It installs in /usr/bin. No pre-*.ini or post-*.ini script required, unless you want to move it to some other directory. Usage: both in the program itself (write 'halt --help' at the prompt and hit RETURN) and on the man page halt.8.txt. Should you have any comments and/or questions, throw them at me and I'll try answer to the best of my abilities ;-) Enjoy, Cristian
