I am experiencing this bug as well in both gdmsetup, and users-admin
after upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10. The users-admin unlock button is
greyed and says:
Not authorized to make changes
If I run gksu users-admin it works fine...
I think it also might be related to why the Shutdown/Restart is greyed
from the System > Shutdown menu
My system is up to date:
