How can I disable the Shut Down command on my terminal server?

When users connect with Remote Desktop client, they can press
Control-Alt End and then they can shutdown the server (or logoff if
their session has crashed).
How can I disable the Shutdown but keep the logoff enabled.  I also
want to keep restart as an option for Admins.

I did a basic search on Google and found lots of pages that give 2
registry hacks to do it, but none worked on my terminal server.  Maybe
they were meant for workstations. Is there a shareware app or
something to do this?

I know the right way to do this is with Group policies, but I have a
standalone server, not a domain server, so this is not an option.

Thanx in advnce

Hello,

To disable the shutdown option when a user logs into the Terminal
Services, do the following:

1. Go to Control Panel, Administrative Tools, and look for Local Security Settings.
2. Now, click on Local Policies tree and then to the "Users Right
Assignment" subtree.
3. Search for "Shut Down the System" option.
4. Add to this option all the users or groups you wish to give the
option to Shutdown the system. All the users or groups excluded from
the list will not have permissions to shutdown the system.

This applies wether the user excluded from the list login locally or
through Terminal Services.
