+&gt;<i> Hi,
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> So there exists two users (provided by default from the setup pkg)
+</I>&gt;<i> called &quot;halt&quot; and &quot;shutdown&quot;. These users just run the halt and shutdown
+</I>&gt;<i> commands as their shell. This means su'ing or sudo'ing or setting a
+</I>&gt;<i> password and logging in as them, will shut the machine down.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> This seems like a relic from many years ago and there is no need to
+</I>&gt;<i> include such users in this day and age. Should we kill them off?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Col
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>+1 on removing them. I didn't even know about them :)
