14 The ftpshut command provides an automated shutdown procedure that the
15 superuser can use to notify FTP users when the FTP Server is shutting
16 down.
17
18
19 Ten minutes before shutdown, or immediately if the value of time is
20 less than ten minutes, any new FTP Server connections will be disabled.
21 You may adjust the shutdown of new FTP Server connections by means of
22 the -l option.
23
24
25 Five minutes before shutdown, or immediately if the value of time is
26 less than five minutes, all current FTP connections will be discon‐
27 nected. You may adjust the shutdown of current FTP connections by means
28 of the -d option.

31 The ftpshut command creates shutdown message files that the FTP Server
32 uses to determine when to shutdown. Separate shutdown message files are
33 created in the anonymous and virtual host FTP Server areas, in addition
34 to the system wide shutdown message file. Once the shutdown occurs, the
35 server continues to refuse connections until the appropriate shutdown
36 message file is removed. This normally is done by using the
37 ftprestart(1M) command. The location of the shutdown message file is
38 specified by the shutdown capability in the ftpaccess file.

100 The ftpshut command supports the following operands:
101
102 time The time at which ftpshut will bring the FTP Servers
103 down. time can have a value of now, which indicates
104 an immediate shutdown. Alternatively, time can spec‐
105 ify a future time in one of two formats: +number or
106 HHMM. The first form brings the FTP Server down in
107 number minutes. The second brings the FTP Server
108 down at the time of day indicated, using a 24-hour
109 clock format. When using the absolute time format,
110 you can only specify times between now and 23:59.
111
112
113 warning-message The message to display that warns of the imminent
114 shutdown. The warning-message will be formatted at
115 70 characters wide. ftpshut knows the actual string
116 length of the magic cookies. If no warning-message
117 is supplied, the default message "System shutdown at
118 %s" is used.
