something like . . . .(run as root)

/etc/init.d/freenx-server stop 
echo "The server will shut down in 2 mins, Please save your work and log 
out"|wall
sleep 180
/usr/bin/nxserver --force-terminate "*" 
sleep 180
init to-whatever


Note
 Suse don't supply the freenx-server script, so you have to download it
and insserv yourself.

The shutdown delay after the message should be longer than the autosave
time you set in Open Office (or whatever you use) if you don't want users
to lose their latest edits . . .
