Sorry, feedback was the wrong word. I've been digging round the
documentation I've been able to find and looking into what's needed to
set up a slave.

It's not so much that I *require* the slave to shut down, more that
I'm not sure how well I'll be able to ensure that it's up all the
time, and I'm trying to understand the implications of that. My basic
impression is that it's not really going to work, unfortunately.
