Disable access to Time change


Hi guys,

I have a simple issue. I want to stop users from changing system time, Only root should be allowed to change the system time.

How can i achieve that?

I am using Red Hat Linux 9.

thanks
Yunus

They shouldn't be able to unless they supply the root password.
