[comp.sys.mac] AppleShare shut-down problems

unocc07@zeus.unl.edu (Dave Caplinger, Microcomputer Specialist) (04/27/89)

Hello all,

	Perhaps you may be able to give me some advice.  I've set up
an AppleShare (2.01) server, and things seem to be going more-or-less
"OK"  (Though the System and Finder on the server's (SE/30) hard drive
have been downgraded to 6.0 and 6.1 respectively).

	The problem is this:  When I try to shut down the server, the
normal "count down" to annoy the users every minute or so :-) works great,
and eventually the users get kicked off the server, and on their screens,
the server commits suicide by leaping into the trashcan.  Then, the problems
begin:  The server won't shut down.  It never gets so far as to say "Turn
off the power now, etc.", or anything.  The arrow pointer comes back, and you
can move it around, but the SE/30 has hung; nothing will do anything.

	Now, the really weird part:  Anyone that had logged into the server
gets the same problem, so they can't turn off their own machines without
rebooting first, then shutting down. I would hope that this is not intentional,
since the manuals don't mention this kind of thing at all (they imply that the 
standard shut down dialogue should come up).

	Does anyone have any suggestions as to what might be wrong?  BTW: we 
have absolutely no extra INITs loaded on the server (which I thought at first
might be the problem...)

    [explantion of how the sever won't shut down properly]

The SE/30 REQUIRES System 6.0.3.  I suspect that your "downgrading" the
System version on the sever is the source of your problems.  There is
a posting on AppleLink detailing how to use and SE/30 as an AppleShare 
server.  I will get it for you and mail it to you ASAP.
