When I have needed this in Redhat, I remapped Ctrl-Alt-Del in /etc/inittab to shutdown, instead of reboot. Now, if you want users to be able to shut down a machine WITHOUT console access, you have a whole different solution. Maybe you can 'chmod go+x /sbin/shutdown' and have at 'er. though you're on AIX, so ymmv. Maybe ask the AIX mailing list?
