Hi,
[CentOS 5]
What is the best way to remove the shutdown and suspend options from menu's for normal users?
After googling around, I added "SystemMenu=false" to the greeter section in /etc/gdm/custom.conf. After that the GDM login screen still shows the options, but 'restart' indeed doesn't work anymore. However, the gnome menu's when logged in, still have the 'suspend' options, which still leads to a hanging (unwakeble) machine.
BTW: I prefer editing config files instead of stupid gui's, as I have to change a lot of machines :-)
Regards,
