System name:		oglala
Type and version:	KN02ba 7.6F (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		PMAGB-BA

What were you trying to do?
	Get zephyr to shut up on my decstation.  (Logging in to two
machines with zmailnotify running creates a mess of z-grams.) 
I issued the command
zctl wg_shutdown

What's wrong:
	I get the message in my console window:
zwgc: Connection timed out while retrieving zephyr subscription list

And then I keep right on getting zgrams.

What should have happened:
	Zephyr should not need to retrieve all my subscriptions just to
stop responding to incoming zgrams.
	It should not time out
	If it does time out fetching subscriptions, it should still honor
my request to shut up!

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
