Yes, there is a way to avoid that?
What is security? Why there were 3 release of the usermode package, as they
allowed a normal user to do "shutdown -h now", and now they are fixed, but
there is the ability to shutdown the system anyway with poeroff or
CTRL-ALT-DEL?
I know these are stupid questions, but I wish to know the answers.
The problem of the poweroff tool is not important, it was only something I
noticed yesterday.
But that gives me a lot of things to think about...
There is no way to avoid a shutdown if you have access to the console?
And if I must take my system running, because it is doing some kind of
calculation, and arrives some other user, and make a CTRL-ALT-DEL, I lose all
my work?
Brrr....
I will keep my system at home tonight ;)

P.S. for Panu Matilainen
You're right, and RedHat makes a great work for all the 98% of cases.
This question was due to a bad lonely neuron of my mind that was dying of
loneliness! ;)
See You!
