Looks to be in order. If you run halt or shutdown as a non-root user, you should get a terse refusal. shutdown will also give you a standard usage dump. <pts://[EMAIL PROTECTED]:3/> halt halt: must be superuser. <pts://[EMAIL PROTECTED]:3/> shutdown shutdown: you must be root to do that! Usage: shutdown [-akrhPHfFnc] [-t sec] time [warning message] [snip] -- mount /dev/wyrm /mnt/bed ; sleep 28800 -- [email protected] mailing list
