prompt for confirmation for reboot in suse server
Hi All,
I accidentally rebooted a server from ILO. I don't want to happen it again.
I want the server to prompt for users confirmation before it actually takes a reboot. I think I can have server prompt for commands : reboot, shutdown -r. I am looking for some kind of server prompts for ctrl+alt+del, if accidentally pressed from ILO key.
Please suggest how can I go with implementing that.

Opps sorry there is a typo there. to restart the init use this command:
init q
not "tellinit q"

KeremE,
Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
You're welcome :) I'm happy to see you've liekd my suggestion. This has happened to me in the past. When I was using IP KVM.
ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/bin/e
instead of kill you'd better use:
tellinit q
