Disable CTRL+ALT+DELETE
Hello, I have a quick question regarding disabling the CTRL+ALT+DELETE keystroke sequence used to reboot a system. I understand that you are able to add the following option to the kernel config file and rebuild the kernel: options SC_DISABLE_REBOOT What I'd like to confirm is whether or not using a keymap file and changing the "boot" entries to "nop", and then loading it on each boot through /etc/rc.conf (KEYMAP = "/usr/share/syscons/keymap/keymap.kbd") is a viable, secure alternative for disabling the CTRL+ALT+DELETE keystroke sequence. I know it was commonly used with older FreeBSD releases, but I'm not sure whether it is recommended with newer releases. Please advise. Thanks! ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
