    Post Backup Script Help

    I’m working for a project and was wondering if you could help? I have a RedHat Enterprise 5.1 box that I need to backup a directory structure. I would greatly appreciate any input. Ideally, I would like to message the users 5 minutes (asking them to logout) before auto logout, then logout all users and prevent additional logins until the rsync of the directory is complete, which will only take a few minutes. After completion of the rsync, then allow users back . Thanks for your support.

    Man page shutdown

    Lookup the man page shutdown. I think it will handle most of your problems, if I understand it correctly.
