Hello,

I've got a server running on 10.3 and want to set, that only root can
shutdown the system.
What I did is set DISPLAYMANAGER_SHUTDOWN=none in the
/etc/sysconfig/displaymanager and after a init 3 and init 5 it worked.
Selecting the log out in the KDE menu gives me only 'End Current
Session'.

So far so good. This is what I want to have. But it seems to work only
if I connect localy, if I connect to this system via VNC I still can see
the button 'turn off computer' and 'restart computer'. Which shall not
be there. If I try to shutdown the system with this button in the VNC
session, it won't do it which is a releive :). But still to prevent from
confusion, those selections should not be there.

Why is this still there in the vnc session and how can I disable these
buttons?

Thanks
Wolfgang
