How to disable SHUT DOWN in WIndows 2000 server - Reseller Hosting, Shared Hosting, Dedicated Hosting by Vortech Inc.

I have Terminal Server running in WIndows 2000 server. My client by accident instead of logoff or Disconnect, they press Start/shut down and bring the entier server down. Is there any option to disable this fuction from normal users?

Try this

Code:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\
Software\
Microsoft\
Windows\
CurrentVersion\
Policies\
Explorer
REG_DWORD: NoClose 
VALUE 1

Is that going to allow the administrator to be able to shut down and the remaining users NOT to be able to shut down? Tha tis what I like to do.... Please advice.

Thanks

It simply removes the shutdown option. If you wanted to restrict people you'd probably have to look at implementing user policies.
