Thanks for your reply Adam.
Why then reboot does not complain? Reboot executes immediatly.
All those directives  link to consolehelper or to systemctl, which should ask for authentication if another user is logged.

Well then the reboot is broken?

Executing poweroff in F-17 (x86_64 up to date) defaults to the "Authentication is required for powering off the system while other users are logged in" snippet.

Only one user (user1) actually logged in, however results from "who" and "users" show otherwise:

# who
user1 :0 2012-07-23 13:04 (:0)
user1 pts/0 2012-07-23 14:39 (:0)
root pts/1 2012-07-23 14:39 (:0)
root pts/2 2012-07-23 14:39 (:0)
root pts/3 2012-07-23 14:39 (:0)
root pts/4 2012-07-23 14:39 (:0)

Those are IMHO some term started with root privileges. As soon as tehere is a anybody else logged except the user which is going to poweroff, then powerof complains about other user logged any - looks correct to me.


Is this correct or is it there a problem?

Thanks in advance.
