Hi!

I don't really see the interest of putting a password on my PC to reboot or shutdown it. Just because if a guy really wants to shutdown my PC he can easily unplug the cable and it's not the password that will stop him
So i tried to put a rule into sudo like this:
But, as i thought, it didn't change anything (it seems normal to me because no one tells him to execute "sudo /sbin/reboot" )
So, did someone succeed in doing it without giving suid privilege to the programs ? Which is here quite dangerous, i don't want that a guy can reboot my PC from ssh

Thanks a lot for the future answers !

Ok sorry, i've just seen something interesting in the gdm.conf file :
I'll try... to see if after few changes it works...

It doesn't work :-/
No one has an idea ???

Thx

So i'm following my monologue, the solution for my problem is really simple:
In the gdm.conf file there is a line :
You put false instead of true and it's ok

The problem is that i don't know if remote logged people can reboot or shutdown the PC too... Maybe with a deeper reading of the conf file we can configure it too.

Thnx for your monologue.
I don't see the use of my girlfriend not being able to shutdown the pc either.
And i am to paranoid to give her the root password.

Anyways it works thnx
