In fact I wanted to do this back when I used kdm. Now that I use qingy I want a way to do this with it, but that's yet to be implemented, I believe. Cheers Renato

I tried kdmctl but it seems to want something else to be running: home kdmctl Cannot connect socket '/var/run/xdmctl/dmctl-:40/socket'. And it lacked a man page: home man kdmctl No manual entry for kdmctl So, If I wanted a menu entry to shutdown my computer I'd enable shutdown for sudo without a password. -- Dan Espen E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
