Shut Down Security - Digerati - 2003-12-18


You could set your NT system to allow shutdown without anybody being logged on. Just set the string value HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT

\CurrentVersion\WinLogon\ShutDownWithoutLogon. If you set the value to 1 then the Ctrl+Alt+Del menu shows a Shut Down button even when nobody is logged on.

 

If you set the value to 0 then the button is grayed out.
