[pE71J5Sw]

Friends,



I have to grant SHUTDOWN privilege to an ordinary user.

How this can be achieved?

More Information:

1. A computer can be shut down using the Win32Shutdown method, specifying 1 as the parameter value
2. A part of Remote Desktop is to hide the Shutdown button, so there is no simple way for the user to restart their PC unless they're installed
3. my user the return error is (no privilege) in the web i found how to change the privilege for shutdown and inserted it in my module
4. local Administrators group, I think the privilege is already in place
5. is used in this case to determine whether to assign the shutdown privilege
6. 10, the DROP privilege is also required in order to use the statement ALTER TABLE

What OS? Do you have any security package on the system (such as BoKS?)?



Best bet without knowing the answers to these questions - install and use sudo. This allows you to give certain users or groups some of the access as if they were root.

More Information:

1. This API using MFC is made to shutdown, log off or restart the computer either immediately
2. It should be impossible to shutdown the system unless you have this shutdown privilege, regardless of which API or command is used
3. Create a new group for the users you wish to have this privilege (For this example, I will use 'shutdown'
4. You could use the the "tsshutdn" or "shutdown" commands from the command line on the remote PC while in a Remote Desktop session
5. This allows the LUID for the shutdown privilege to be found in readiness for elevating the privileges of the process
6. To shut down or restart the system, the calling process must use the AdjustTokenPrivileges function to enable the SE_SHUTDOWN_NAME privilege
7. info file, unless you shutdown # the slave server, delete master
8. This method uses the four API functions in turn to identify the current process, retrieve the current privileges, identify the shutdown privilege and grant it to the user

OS is SCO UNix Ware 7.0

The security package you mentioned is not installed.

Without any such security package can we grant SHUTDOWN privilege.Is there any work around ?

Would it work to do something like the following?



create a group called "shutdown"

chgrp shutdown /sbin/shutdown

chmod 4550 /sbin/shutdown

add the users to the group "shutdown"



Then they could "newgrp shutdown; /sbin/shutdown -y -h 0"...
