C8 Question
...is not in wheel and during install I have not enabled checkbox
to give that user administration permission. I tried to create a new
user with adduser but got the same problem.
To solve this I modified polkit login1 policy on
/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.login1.policy setting
<allow_active>no</allow_active> for statement that concern reboot and
shutdown/poweroff.
Why on CentOS a normal user can shutdown the system without root
privileges? I think that on any server normal user should not be able to
shutdown the system without privileges.
This is a bug or a wanted defaul...
