I have found that when I "Lock Computer" in Windows 2000 just after running "shutdown --exitex 10" then the computer does not shut down. Nothing happens. The command just exits. When the computer is not locked, "shutdown --exitex 10" does a complete shutdown and power off. If I lock the computer right after running "shutdown 10" (no --exitex) then the computer does shutdown, but does not power off. I get the "It is now safe to turn off your computer" screen. I get the same behavior from "shutdown 10" even if the computer is not locked. I noticed this while trying to set up a nightly script that would run some backup and cleanup scripts and then shutdown, all while the PC was locked and I was on my way home. cygcheck.out attached. I updated all cygwin packages yesterday or the day before. My normal login account is in the Administrators group (I doubt that matters, but who knows). Regards, Fred Wheeler
