Hello,
I have a quick question regarding disabling the CTRL+ALT+DELETE
keystroke sequence used to reboot a system.
I understand that you are able to add the following option to the
kernel config file and rebuild the kernel:
options SC_DISABLE_REBOOT
What I'd like to confirm is whether or not using a keymap file and
changing the "boot" entries to "nop", and then loading it on each boot
through /etc/rc.conf (KEYMAP = "/usr/share/syscons/keymap/keymap.kbd")
is a viable, secure alternative for disabling the CTRL+ALT+DELETE
keystroke sequence.
I know it was commonly used with older FreeBSD releases, but I'm not
sure whether it is recommended with newer releases.
Please advise.
Thanks!

If you are using FreeBSD >=6.2, there is a sysctl knob for disabling
CTRL+ALT+DELETE,
sysctl hw.syscons.kbd_reboot=0
Take a look at syscons(4) and sysctl(8) for more information.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
