Package: debian-edu-config
Version: 1.711 1.456
Severity: minor

Hi all,

in order to completely end the shutdown process on diskless  
workstations (+ also on thin clients) and also in order to make sure  
the network cards remains on standby (waiting for WOL packages), we  
discovered that machines are smoother during shutdown/WOL if we change

/etc/default/halt:
"""
HALT=poweroff
"""

to

/etc/default/halt:
"""
HALT=poweroff
NETDOWN=no
"""

Greets,
Mike

Should this be done also for workstations, for shutdown-at-night and
wake-on-lan to work properly with these?  It sound like something we
should enable for everything except the standalone profile
