Modified shutdown(1) to ignore login names starting with "u_" when deciding whether to permit a shutdown. These names are reserved for uucp links by local convention, and since they are machines rather than human beings they are (a) not listening to apb's, and (b) not seriously inconvenienced by being abruptly kicked off. This just formalizes a practice already carried out manually. -- Henry Spencer @ U of Toronto Zoology {allegra,ihnp4,linus,decvax}!utzoo!henry
