I don't get it. The original poster asked how to shut down netbsd, and 
mentioned that he'd used shutdown -h, and halt.

Both which are the correct answer. No more is needed.

Everyone seems to assume that he wants to power down his machine. While 
I agree that this *might* be what he really want, it is not actually 
what he asked for.

So, either he already knew the correct answer, but maybe he didn't 
understand properly that he'd done the correct thing, or else he wants 
to do something else than shut down NetBSD, in which case it might pay 
to ask what he really wants.
