| 5 | Well, the old answer would be that you need to use sudo to run it, as |

| 8 | I suspect that the new answer is that with appropriate |
| 9 | policykit/consolekit/etc settings you can probably allow somebody |
| 10 | sitting at a physical console to shut down the system, or any |
| 11 | logged-in user if you prefer. However, I haven't actually set that up |
