Hello,
Have you try to play with /etc/shutdown.allow (shutdown(8))
Otherwise, I expected to do what you want from
System->Preferences->Main_Menu
but there is not item corresponding to the `Shutdown Down...' button,
a lest on my Lenny box.
I am not very familiar with the Configuration Editor,
but I would look there as well.
hth,
Jerome

Hello,
I have had a couple of users accidentally shutdown computers, because
there is a shutdown button under the log off button on the Systems
dropdown menu. I had thought the default for debian was to disable user
shutdown (ie. root only), but apparently this is wrong, or has changed.
How can I disable this menu item? I was able to find instructions on how
to disable this in the login screen, but not from this menu after you
have logged in. I'm sure there must be a setting to disable this, but
can't find it anywhere.
thanks,
maria
