Hi everybody,
I set up a PC for my parents to do their email on, with Mandrake 10
and Firefox/Thunderbird, but for some reason, their is no Shutdown
item on the menu. I can't remember how to allow the normal user to run
/sbin/shutdown as root (something in /etc/sudoers perhaps)? Can
someone please shed some light on the situation.
Cheers,
Hugo.
Use "chmod u+s /sbin/shutdown" then everyone can use "/sbin/shutdown -h
0" or something.
