From the Xfce developers: Xfce4 Session 4.8 already checks for all the hal/policykit/consolekit/foo stuff so you should configure that if you don't want your users to be able to shutdown from Xfce.

jpka: Thanks for reporting this issue in Xfce 4.6.1. The original bug report was filed against Xfce 4.2, which is no longer in use. The correct page for documentation about the kiosk mode on the Xfce wiki is: http://wiki.xfce.org/howto/kiosk_mode The documentation for the panel in kiosk mode is: http://www.xfce.org/documentation/4.2/manuals/xfce4-panel#panel-kiosk The documentation for the sessions in kiosk mode is: http://www.xfce.org/documentation/4.2/manuals/xfce4-session#xfsm-kiosk-mode Unfortunately, most of the documentation has not been updated yet for Xfce 4.6. The 4.2 in the above references indicates the documents are for Xfce 4.2. There are many changes in Xfce 4.6, and you will need to adjust things as needed. I need some more information about this bug, if you could. At a minimum, we need: 1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System - About Ubuntu. 2. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem, 3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).

[Bug 65010] Re: Xubuntu desktop manager not LTSP aware
Hi ! 1) I use Ubuntu 9.10 (server) 2) I prepare my LTSP setup in following steps: Install ubuntu-server-i386 on clean partition of 'server' PC install configure LTSP package run 'sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop' run Xfce under root user, get updates run 'adduser' to create 'user's without any rights boot 'thin client's from 'server' and login on clients via Xfce under 'user's 3) Play with this setup, and see all is fine except one thing: When i select 'Quit - Shutdown' on client panel, i immediately get a lot of 'SQUASHFS errors' on client and power off of server. I think it's a critical bug,.. but i currently not sure it's Xfce bug or not. Then I try workaround as in Comment #12, it's work - i no more able to ruin 'server', but now no simple (and cute) way to poweroff client PC... only way is logout first, then shut down client via login window menu.

[Bug 65010] Re: Xubuntu desktop manager not LTSP aware
I ran into this bug on ubuntu server 7.10 after installing ltsp and xubuntu-desktop. No kiosk mode. All network users are allowed to login, so the one-user-workaround earlier posted does not work. I set the Status of this bug to Confirmed. I hope this was correct. There was no reopen or rediscovered status choice. Invalid was the status before, seems to be definetly wrong if we consider that the bug is still alive and kicking. Maybe even more important than changing the status: A workaround that does work: in /etc/dbus-1/system.d/hal.conf convert some lines with: allow send_interface=org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.SystemPowerManagement into html-style comments.

Hello Everyone, If anybody is interested, we have posted a work around for this bug on our blog. http://tillamookrage.blogspot.com/2007/09/ltsp-client-shuts-down-server- fix.html Its not fix by any means, but it is the method that we are using to make LTSP systems more usable for people and administrators. It seems to work very well. I'm sure this bug will be fixed soon, but hopefully that helps in the mean time.

[Bug 65010] Re: Xubuntu desktop manager not LTSP aware
some aditional info: as I am playing about with Gutsy, it seems like XFCE has started to be a little bit more LTSP aware: 1. I still get all those confusing options, but now it begs me for authentication (password) before it starts shutting down things. 2. I do not know if it wants password if I am sitting at the console. 3. I am still not convinced that all users really want or need this wide range of choices for a plain log-out request.

[Bug 65010] Re: Xubuntu desktop manager not LTSP aware
Hi Jani, no I am not running kiosk mode, I am running a small office. But since I found this bug report while looking for something else I figured that somebody might be interested in some information 8-) Anyway, when running either gnome or kde, without any special config, they both figure out that they are running out of a thin client and refuses to provide options that could close down the server for the whole network. With xubuntu it is a different game, any user can shut down the server. Since we do not have anybody evil (or stupid) enough to shut down our server in a bad way around my place that is not a problem for me, but still it irritates me a little bit every time I log out, to have this abundance of options to chose from when I only want to log out. A slightly unrelated idea for a new feature is having shutdown and reboot buttons that works on the client after you log out. Now you will have to wait for the log out to be accomplished before you can switch of your terminal. So I did not write my previous message because of personal problems but rather because that Jérôme asked for some more input. BTW, since xfce seems to be quite easy to configure, I doubt it would be a great trouble for a manager of a kiosk setup to disable the evil logout options. Though I have not tried setting up this particular thing so I may be wrong, at least there are settings in the control panel (sessions and startup) for this purpose and there should be config files for the same features as well.

Dapper with out-of-the-box configuration, no kiosk mode. I will try Edgy later.
