Ive added reboot to the infamous ctrlaltdel line in inittab. You can just as easily put halt there instead. You have to mess with Pam to get it to work right, or put a reboot or halt binary in there that does not require pam (thats what I did. I know, bad arthur). I do reboot instead of halt because the machine is a dual boot win98/LTSP.
