Hi list,

Watching the thread about startup script I thought of a question about
shutdown script. Is it necessary to shutdown certain services when
machine goes down? Like for example mysql, dovecot, clamav, amavis or
openvpn. I've never saw anybody do that. Lots of people on their
manuals, tutorials or posts writes how to start mysql, but none of then
writes a shutdown script. So maybe it is not so necessary? (But then
again, mysql is a database engine, and databases should be handle with
care).
