My guess is that Red Hat did this to make easier for home/laptop users, who don't want to logout as a regular user and then log in as root to just to shutdown the system. I'd say that's a reasonable argument, but it should be easy for sys admins to disable it in the workplace when needed. -- Prentice _______________________________________________ rhelv6-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv6-list
