If I try ,from normal user shell, to run command like "reboot" > or "shutdown -h now" system will reboot/shutdown. This happens on tty > console, on xfce terminal and ssh session. But can you describe exactly in which situation user x can shutdown? I mean, if you say via ssh connection, is it that user x is at the same time also logged in into XFCE desktop on the same system? Or is it also true if the only login to the system at this time is via the ssh connection and then user x is still able to shutdown? I mean if user x runs the XFCE session remote on the system using ssh X11 forwarding, NX or whatever, then user x should really NOT be able to shutdown without providing the root password. That would be a nightmare for multi user systems :-) Regards, Simon
