When I initially got my gnome desktop up and running (default debian 3.1r1 install), I was glad to see that it would not let you shut the system down without asking for root's password.
Something has happened since then - I have no idea what - that causes the shutdown sequence to start of immediately when initiated from a desktop session (Actions --> Log Out --> Shut down) without requiring root's password. Can anyone help me find out what happened, and how to restore the (to me) important shutdown password security measure? Thanks so much in advance for your help.
