I need to create a user-account which does nothing but shutdown the system.
This is an isolated system which never has more than one user and if I don't
make the shutdown process EXTREMELY simple, the end-user will just hit the
power switch (They did this a lot before we created a 'simple' method with
our old Interactive Unix systems). So now I need to do something similar
with DU4.0D
I wanted to add a "shutdown" button to the login screen but could not find
an easy way to do it. Now I am trying to mimic a Sun account (powerdown)
which accepts a login and automatically shuts down the system. The problem
is that I can't get DU to accept multiple UIDs of 0 (zero) as I can with
some other OSs.
Any ideas?
