The SPAttention codes are documented in the AppleShare 3.0 developers kit, 
available from Apda. 


The attention code sent in an Attention packet looks like this



(4 bits)|(12 bits)
  1234    XXXXXXXXXXXX


4-Bits (Attention code)
------

Bit
----

1 - Shutdown

2 - Server Crash

3 - Server Message

4 - Disconnect



The other 12 bits are the number of minutes until shutdown, or an extended 
bitmap.



See the Developers kit for more details.
