I've looked and haven't found an answer. How do I implement this in the console or is it implemented already? I want it to notify players that server will shutdown in 5 mins to be restarted and to then countdown and shutdown.

Take a look in the config/consoles.cfg file. In amongst the commands are these:
Code:
Commands
{
   CMD 1 shutdown Shutdown in 6 minutes
   CMD 2 shutdown Shutdown in 12 minutes
   CMD 3 shutdown Shutdown in 18 minutes
   CMD 4 shutdown Shutdown in 24 minutes
   CMD 5 shutdown Shutdown in 30 minutes
   CMD 6 shutdown Shutdown in 36 minutes
   CMD 7 shutdown Shutdown in 42 minutes
   CMD 8 shutdown Shutdown in 48 minutes
   CMD 9 shutdown Shutdown in 54 minutes
   CMD 0 shutdown Shutdown in 60 minutes
}



Then write a script in scripts/console to do the shutdown called shutdown.src. The following is an example and doesn't do exactly what you want but it's a good start. (This is either from an old distro or the WorldOfDreams scripts, not sure which:)

Code:
use uo;
use os;
use util;

include "include/clock";


program console_shutdown(cmd)
   cmd := CInt(cmd);
   var basetime;
   var nexttime;
   var i;
   case ( cmd )
      0: basetime := 60;
      1: basetime := 6;
      2: basetime := 12;
      3: basetime := 18;
      4: basetime := 24;
      5: basetime := 30;
      6: basetime := 36;
      7: basetime := 42;
      8: basetime := 48;
      9: basetime := 54;
   endcase

   for ( i := 1; i <= 3; i += 1 )
      nexttime := basetime - (( basetime / 3) * (i - 1));
      print("System Message: " + nexttime + " minutes to shutdown!");
      foreach onlinechr in EnumerateOnlineCharacters()
         SendSysMessage(onlinechr, "System Message: " + nexttime + " minutes to shutdown!", 3, 38);
      endforeach
      sleep(60 * basetime / 3);
   endfor
   Shutdown();
endprogram




I find I don't use the console though. For admin purposes I find it more convenient to use the internal pol webserver and manage it from there.

That depends on your pol.cfg entry for the port.

http://127.0.0.1:5002 should work on the server if the defaults are then and the www server enabled in pol.cfg. Of course you need something in scripts/www/ for anything to be displayed.

Yes something is in the www folder from wod but still i'm getting page not found. My firewall isn't blocking my access to this computer? Seems strange that it would block me from my own computer but will check it.
Code:

#            trouble if it's enabled.

Now i'm getting the user/pw box to come up but it won't take the pw....have I got that in right? I can get on the webserver now. I took the pw out and added index.html to that address.

If your internet web server is for local only, there isn't really a need for a password is there?

Don't know, haven't used it.
Try
WebServerPassword=tweedledum:tweedledee
