Hi,

I'm currently installing a CentOS 5 desktop as a public internet access point. The machine shuts down every day automatically at 22:30. Is there a way I can display a message in GNOME at 22:15 warning the user that the machine will shutdown in 15 minutes ?

I believe the shutdown command automagically generates warning. I would *guess* that GNOME would have some applet that monitors these sorts of warnings and creates popups.

Any suggestions ?
