But can you describe exactly in which situation user x can shutdown? I
mean, if you say via ssh connection, is it that user x is at the same time
also logged in into XFCE desktop on the same system? Or is it also true if
the only login to the system at this time is via the ssh connection and
then user x is still able to shutdown?
I mean if user x runs the XFCE session remote on the system using ssh X11
forwarding, NX or whatever, then user x should really NOT be able to
shutdown without providing the root password. That would be a nightmare
for multi user systems :-)
