I cannot imagine allowing users to affect the runlevel of the server. 
Only root should be able to do that.  Unless there is something i have
missed in this thread.  The first thing I do is disable the shutdown
button in the *dm login screen.  On the clients the shutdown button
becomes a logout button.

~I continue to have this annoying problem of not being able to
~completely shut down the server from a regular user in X. It is hard to
~believe that only one other person has seen this issue. Things seem to
~work fine when LTSP is not in the picture. I don't know if the nvidia
~driver has anything to do with it. It looks like the system comes down
~to either run level 3 or 1 and stays there. I then need to log in as
~root and issue a "shutdown -h" command to complete the process. The
~regular users do not have shutdown privileges from a terminal login, so
~I need to intervene. They can shutdown the system from X while logging
~out. None of this happened with RH7.2 and the older 3.0.0 LTSP.
~
~One other note is that the server (RH7.3 iso's) is running XFree86
~4.2.X with KDE 3.0 while the clients are apparently running older
~versions.
~Does anyone have any idea about how to fix this issue?
~
~Thanks,
~Rob
