Hello Bacher,
Thanks for the comment. Let me explain once more, Please correct me if I am wrong. First I login with the root user name ie(root) . Now I have root session. Now I choose to switch the user, doing so I have my root session running, but I am back to the login screen. Now I am choosing another user X and logs into it. Now I have a valid session for user X also, so in total I have a root user session which is run in background, and an active session for user X. Now user X is trying to shutdown the computer, he gets warned, since root user has his session running in background. Now user X is cancelling the authentication request.. which session shall I expect to get back to?? to user X rite??.. But what I see is I am back in root session.. How can we justify that an unprivileged user like X getting root access with out any authentication?? more than that , he has canceled the authentication request..
