ssh -Y username@localhost /etc/X11/xinit/Xsession Currently users with a GNOME Desktop launched in this manner are not registered in ConsoleKit. See Bug #435521 for more details. Menus show Shutdown/Reboot/Hibernate etc. If I select them nothing happens because PolicyKit is correctly rejecting it. It is a bug that these options are offered at all to these users. gnome-panel-2.22.1.2-6.fc9.x86_64 PolicyKit-0.8-2.fc9.x86_64 ConsoleKit-0.2.10-3.fc9.x86_64 Impact: Shutdown/Reboot/Hibernate options are offered to thin client users where they are confusing and wrong.

Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/devel/gnome-panel/gnome-panel-2.22.0-ck-shutdown.patch?view=markup http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/gnome-panel/branches/gnome-2-22/gnome-panel/panel-gdm.c?view=markup Jon Mccann pointed at this code where the problem may lie.
This should be fixed with the latest gnome-session and gnome-panel builds. Moving to MODIFIED for Warren to QA. Moving from F10Blocker to F10Target list since it's only relevant in broken scenarios and only unaesthetic when relevant.
