Hello. I miss the good old days on almost every Linux that normal users cannot shutdown the machine. I have a SuSE 10.1 installation which has to be on for all the time.

I could not find this option. Before I post this I tried to search for such settings in the following places: * permission of /sbin/shutdown
/sbin/shutdown is a symlink to /sbin/halt. You only have to change halt.
* /etc/shutdown.allow (this file do not exist on SuSE 10.1) * Gnome Control Center (also checked System section, options include Beagle setting, GStreamer properties, Session, Date and Time, User management, Power options, Sound, Preferred applications. * GDM Setup (/opt/gnome/sbin/gdmsetup) (I checked all tabs) * SuSE Yast Could you give a bit more detail on how to find this option?
I don't know about Gnome, but in KDE, it's under user management. Try changing /sbin/halt permissions. That should do it for you, as at least in KDE, that's what gets called.
