NAME¶
halt - variables that affect the behavior of the shutdown scriptsDESCRIPTION¶
The /etc/default/halt file contains variable settings in POSIX format:- VAR=VAL
OPTIONS¶
The following variables can be set.- HALT
- If set to poweroff the system will be powered down after it has
been brought down. This is the default.
- NETDOWN
- Setting this to no prevents shutdown from shutting down the network intefaces. This is necessary to use Wake-On-Lan. Setting it to yes causes shutdown to also bring down the network interfaces (and thus prevent the machine from being woken up remotely).
