Hello all.
With all respect Doug, users that have remote machines and do not 
have access to it to boot single user like the manual says.. what can 
we do? I understand that step is to be sure that no user will modify 
something while we are doing those process. In my case I do that step 
after midnight when our users are not in the server.

Can others with remote systems comment about what they do in this step?

Thanks in advance
