It's FreeBSD nasty, why does not FreeBSD provide a sysctl to simply let root turn ctl+alt+del off?
According to the article's "Secure the console", user can access console, they should let root to do the simple settings, at least it can prevent user from pressing ctl+alt+del to suddenly
reboot machine! the user might not on purpose.
Yeah! wonderful FreeBSD, it is a best distribution
I ever used.
the only thing I don't like is it shells.
while all system scripts were wrotten in sh compatible style, but for user and root, the
only offical supported interactive shell is csh,
this is none sh compatible. NetBSD and OpenBSD
has ksh (pdksh) in standard distribution, it is
sh compatible and very small and efficient,
and its size is half of sh and csh!

Yes, I encountered this problem toooo! FreeBSD core teams sucks!
