Paul,
Ah, I forgot to look at that man page.
You'll want to replace "localhost" with either "ALL" or the exact hostname of
the machine in question, e.g.,
%users ALL=/sbin/shutdown -h now
As this will be on only one machine ALL will do.
Can I set an alias so when she exits X11 to a console all she needs to type
is
sudo halt
and this will invoke /sbin/shutdown -h now? Gotta' keep in simple here.
Thanks,
Rich
