RE: how do I prevent power user from shutting down or rebooting a

I tried to setup a user under the "user" and "mobil" profile but I can not
log into the terminal server with that user setting. How do I go about
taking away the right to shut down or reboot from the "power user" group? I
only want them to access the Quick Books program, nothing else. How can I
allow a user to log into the terminal server and only allow them access to QB?
