First I'd like to thank Vinnie, Carl, Mike, Michael, Todd, David, Walt and
Eva for responding to my problem. Carl and Walt got me thinking in the
right direction. What I did was this though, I used the "logger" utility
to log entries into the /var/adm/messages file as it was shutting
down. The line looks like this:
/usr/bin/logger -p user.err Shutting down the dreaded slpd...
Then as /etc/init.d/slpd is run an entry is added to the log file. I added
a line to each script right after the "stop" section began which got me to
the right script that was dying, slpd. Turns out it wasn't anything to do
with NIS+ but probably a Java problem since this script looks like it's
running a Java program as part of the shutdown and I did install a newer
version of Java. Commenting out the offending lines in /etc/init.d/slpd
allowed me to shutdown and reboot. Didn't really look into a fix since I
don't think I need SLP anyway and will probably just disable it.

I've searched the archives and the Internet but haven't been able to find a
definitive answer to this problem. Solaris 8 clean install worked fine,
then I configured and populated NIS+ and now the server hangs on
shutdown. If I use "shutdown" it hangs but if I use "reboot" it reboots
fine. I thought it was originally something to do with vold and an error
reported "problem unmounting /vol". I basically removed volmgt from the
rcX.d directories and no change, except the error message went away.
So I suspect that the error message is not pointing to the problem but was
unrelated. I'm fairly new to Solaris and NIS+, but I didn't see anything
in /var/adm/messages relating to the shutdown. Everything works fine,
NIS+, NFS, etc., just will not shutdown properly or change init states to
single user mode or power down.
Thx,
Ken
