Disable server shutdown/restart from the web interface

entered 'poweroff' into the shell on the one that is of course 30 miles away.

Mixing up consoles happens to all of us - but not always so far away.

Then I learned to install molly-guard on all of my systems. This does not help for the Gui though...

I agree that it should be different. It happened to me twice already.
For the Nodes shutdown it should ask a double-triple question to confirm, similar to the way it is in ESX or Windows Servers.

clicking once does not shutdown anything - you will get a second question if you really want do shutdown the node.

restart of a node is an important functionality, so this cannot be disabled.
