allowing users to issue the "shutdown" command

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I am running CentOS 5.3 and have just the two accounts "root" and 
"buz".  I would like to be able to issue "shutdown" from the account 
"buz", and thus created
/etc/shutdown.allow with the single entry  "buz" (without any quotes).  
I still
get the error message "only root can do this" (or something similar) 
even if I include the '-a' option on the shutdown command.  What am I 
missing ?
