Re: How to Shutdown as a normal user?

[Teuchteu]

I created a user with root privileges who just makes a shutdown -h now 
(Well i edit the /etc/passwd file to launch a script that shut down the 
computer). We wave the same at work on Unix platform (we don't have root 
privelege :((
I'm sure it's far to be the best solution, but it is simple, and easy...

Ctrl-Alt-Del to shut down.
No privileges needed.
   

C-M-DEL reboots, not shut down, by default.  You'll need to grep for
shutdown in /etc/inittab to change the behavior to actually shutdown
that way instead of a restart.
