I've been using Wake on Lan for some time. Recently, I made some changes to grub and about that same time I could no longer shut down my machine from Ubuntu. It just restarts.
It doesn't matter if I type:
sudo shutdown -Ph now
or if I shutdown from the gui
or if I let crontab shutdown as it's been doing for months
I still get the reboot when I try to shutdown the PC.
I can solve this problem by taking advantage of my dual boot, going into Windows, and shutting down from there -- but that's just silly.
Another user resolved this issue by removing Wake on Lan from the bios settings, but I use this feature.
I'd be happy for Ubuntu to just reconstruct grub, if that would solve it, but I don't know how to instuct it to do that. Also, I am not certain that the grub changes caused this issue.
Anyone have any suggestions of a fix?
