Do you have any idea why your HP 3000 takes half a day to start and a full
day to shutdown?  My HP 3000/917 takes about 7 minutes to come up and about
3 minutes to come down.  It takes that long to come up because it spends an
inordinate amount of time checking the memory (64MB).  I suspect you have
gobs of memory on your system.

BTW, My Windows NT server takes about 3 minutes to come up, but up to 15
minutes to come down.  My NT laptop comes up in about 2-3 minutes and shuts
down in about 1-2 minutes.

Kind regards,

"Why would we want a Network O/S on the HP3000 that takes half a day to
start and all day to shut down?"  - A quote from my network person.
