Does anyone know who bogdan taru is and why he doesn't allow Qmail 
forwarding?  Or, in my case, why I repeatedly get bounce messages from 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] when I send something to the list?

On my SuSE machine it is /sbin/shutdown, and `which shutdown` just 
returns me to the command prompt if I enter the command as a user.  Could 
be that RedHat has shutdown under /usr/bin.  What permissions does it 
show when you do a `ls -lF /usr/bin/shutdown`?

I can't imagine that allowing users to shutdown the machine is *that* 
odd.  If you look at shutdown's manpage you can see that using a 
/etc/shutdown.allow file listing the users authorized to shutdown and a 
setting in /etcinittab, listed users can shut down the machine with the 
three-fingered-salute.  I set my machine up that way so my daughter can 
reboot the machine into Windows to play her Barbie games.  Using this 
method, she doesn't need root access, and I don't have to try to set up 
`sudo` (although that will come eventually as her skills improve).
