I had exactly the same result on a W2K SP2 box with `shutdown -s now`

Although, I have to admit the first time I tried a shutdown I did `shutdown
-h now` as my fingers are used to type that then I want to halt a Linux box.

Corinna, I assume that you feel that `shutdown -h` is logical for hibernate
but I wondered if you might reconsider so that dim Linux users were not so
easily confused :-)
