Not necessarily true. Lots of people use remote KVM's :) So just because someone has access to the console does not mean they have physical access to the server. -matt On 7/8/07, Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Sat, 2007-07-07 at 22:51 -0700, Robert - eLists wrote: Greetings On centos 5, if I ssh in as a regular non-superuser account and go to the sbin dir to issue a reboot command, it wont do it as says you must be superuser If you are on the console logged in as a non-superuser account and do the same thing, it will reboot.

If so, that could negate that option if the fs is configued as such.
