Re: [Bug 949] KDM should not allow shutdown from the thin clients



Hi there, this is a human bug. Administrating a ltspserver should 
include the knowledge that running down the system means running down 
the ltsp. This is why the root password is necessary.

Yes, I admit, it happened to me once, too. But this is necessary for 
learning, I guess ;)

Regards
Ralf
