I've got this in my /etc/inittab: # Trap CTRL-ALT-DELETE ca::ctrlaltdel:/usr/bin/clear & /usr/bin/wall < /root/ctrlaltdel /root/ctrlaltdel looks like: [EMAIL PROTECTED] sds]# cat /root/ctrlaltdel Aiai - The three finger salute What exactly where you thinking when you pressed Ctrl-Alt-Del ?? I don't know what your idea of acting funny is, but this is not the kind of stuff that I want going on on my terminals. There's a reason why Ctrl-Alt-Del is called the three finger salute in the Unix world. This combination normally executes this command: /sbin/shutdown -t3 -r now You proved before that you aren't very smart, but I do believe that you understand what would have happened if we didn't foresee this do you? Just be glad that we thought about the braindead windows users who want to press Ctrl-Alt-Del on anything with keys on it, or we would have had to open a can of whoop-ass on your sorry ass. Honestly, I'm a bit pissed of Sirius All in good fun :) joost DISCLAIMER This e-mail and any attached files are confidential and may be legally privileged.
