hello,
is there a method for allowing (besides root) local users (ordinary users sitting at the keyboard of the computer) the ability to use the shutdown command? i dont want those logged in via ssh or other remote method having this capability.
thanks,
matt zagrabelny
Check out sudo. It's probably the best method because it will also log who turned in the command to reboot/shutdown the computer.
Also, because it (may) require password authentication for the command, shutting down the computer will be a more deliberate process.
