Debian Sid. 'halt' does not poweroff with systemd. That's a totally different issue, though. With systemd both 'halt' and 'poweroff' should run through the init sequence (stop all services, send TERM to all processes, send KILL to all processes). 'halt' then stops at this point - the only thing left running is then the kernel (there's a certain pattern of work that involves running a machine like this for a firewall. All the rules are loaded into the kernel and then the machine is halted. The kernel can still process packets happily, but there are no user space processes which can alter/interfere). What Zenaan is talking about is systemd asking a service to stop and it taking too long to do so (perhaps it never will, perhaps it just needs a long time) > > Hugo > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST@lists.debian.org with a subject > of "unsubscribe".
