No History after shutdown -h on FBSD 8 or 9

[Al Plant]

Aloha,

Is there a reason the history no longer stays in memory on FreeBSD 8 & 9?

Reko Turja sent me a work around for a reboot:

shutdown -r +1
logout

or

shutdown -h +1
logout

Both of the above work to save the history in a tcsh shell.

We used to be able to use:

  shutdown -h now

Is this not going to be possible from FreeBSD 8 onward?


Thanks...
