Does anyone know a way that we can remove "Shutdown" while still allow "Restart"?
Sure do. If you remove the ability to shut the system down, you prevent shutdowns and restarts. However, you can still restart the system by killing lsass.exe. That requires local admin privs, though. But "kill lsass.exe" will cause the system to reboot (it will even bring a nice shutdown box up and count 10 secs or so).
I opened a case with MS about this and the rep said that he didn't think that it could be done.
You mean there *is* one thing MS can't do? Tell them to use their imagination. :) Cheers, Frank
