I am running Windows 2000 SBS and when I shutdown, I get a message that MMC is not responging. It is then necessary to "end now" to get by the problem.

One possibility is that you (or someone) may have configured MMC to manage a machine that no longer exists, or is otherwise changed in some way. You can work around this by creating a new console file, without the old "ghost" connections.

Whether or not that is your issue, you may also want to look atthis Microsoft article titled, "Step-by-Step Guide to the Microsoft Management Console".

This will show you the configuration issues that may result in that error.
