[CentOS] Disabling shutdown button

Jim,

 

That does partially do the job: when you click on shutdown or reboot, it
simply restarts the X server.

I can live with that, but I would prefer a neater solution where those
options are no longer available/visible

 

Thanks !

I've done a similar thing on Fedora systems by putting the following
in /etc/gdm/custom.conf

[daemon]
HaltCommand=
RebootCommand=

I don't have any CentOS boxes with a GUI screen to check it on, but I
wouldn't be surprised if it was equally applicable there.
