you mean it won't work over ssh?
Correct. If you ssh into a host, you need to be in a group with elevated privileges like whee, use sudo, or the root user to shutdown or reboot the system. I ssh'd into the same system with the same username and password with the F32 VM that I started up and both shutdown and reboot commands were restricted.
[jfargen@jwhlaptop ~]$ ssh jfargen@192.168.122.5

Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no/[fingerprint])? yes
