I have more than once typed shutdown instead of reboot when working on a remote machine... always fun

Make an alias for when you type shutdown it does restart and if you want to shutdown make an alias that goes like

Networking, we had a remote office in Europe (I'm in the US) and wanted to reset a phone. Phone was on port 10 of the Cisco switch, port 1 went to the firewall (not my design, already in place).

Helping my coworker, I tell her to shut port 10.

Shut port 1, enter.

Ok... office is offline and on another continent...

i have the horrible habit of using shutdown now because of my personal computers. a lot more fun.

Not sure if this will help you, but I always do shutdown and then think about whether I want to do -r or -h. I'm sure it won't help ๐Ÿ™‚
