Shutting down Linux

[Sean McMahon]

One command isn't quick enough for you?  Well I mispoke thats what 3 commands.
Not being rude but if you made it a script it would be a major security whole.
I suppose you could find the shutdown utility and give execute permission to
all. Sean

Debian 3.0 R2.  In the installation manual it states to shut down the system you
need to log in as root and type shutdown -h now.  Is there any quicker and
easier way to shut down your computer?
